Need for comprehensive provincial alcohol strategy

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) strongly recommend that the provincial government implements a comprehensive alcohol strategy developed with recommendations by the Canadian Alcohol Policy Evaluation (CAPE) Project and written with the support of a multidisciplinary panel of experts, including local public health and people with lived experience.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that RNAO strongly recommend that both the provincial and federal governments implement a tax or pricing system that covers the growing deficit alcohol causes each year.
