[News] Liv Mendelsohn and James Janeiro: Building a national strategy for caregivers, Canada’s unsung heroes
A majority of Canadians think that Canada is broken after years of stagnant incomes, affordability challenges, rising crime, government failures on basic functions like healthcare and immigration, and a deepening cultural malaise. But decline is a choice, and better public policies are needed to overcome Canada’s many challenges. Kickstart Canada brings together leading voices in academia, think tanks, and business to lay out an optimistic vision for Canada’s future, providing the policy ideas that governments need to ensure a bright future for all Canadians.
The stars are finally aligning to make Canada the best place in the world to give and receive care. In the last budget, the federal government made an unprecedented commitment to a National Caregiving Strategy. This is the first time that a federal government of any stripe has recognized the need for policy reform to address the crisis in care.
