The next federal election will take place on Sept. 20, 2021. Elections matter, especially when it comes to the health of Canadians. Health isn’t just about health care. Our economic, social and environmental circumstances affect our health. These are important issues at stake in the election.

The Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) asks you to vote for your health. At the heart of RNAO’s platform is its concern with equity. A healthy post-pandemic recovery means a just recovery for all Canadians.

It is vital that all parties and all candidates address the longstanding inequities laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic.

RNAO has asked the leaders of the major federal parties for their views on these issues. We will post their responses as we receive them. We urge you to take the time to ask your candidates whether these issues matter to them and what they plan to do about them.
