Building a Stronger Health Care System

Canadians are proud to have one of the best health care systems in the world — a universal, public system that proved to be invaluable during our fight against COVID-19.

We’re moving forward with smart, innovative changes to expand access to health care professionals and services for every Canadian in every corner of the country. A re-elected Liberal government will:

  • Invest $10 billion to eliminate waitlists — that’s $6 billion in new funding on top of $4 billion already committed in Budget 2021;
  • Invest $3 billion to hire 7,500 family doctors, nurses, and nurse practitioners over four years; and
  • Expand virtual health care services so you don’t have to wait in a doctor’s office if you don’t need to be there.

And, to recruit more health professionals in rural and remote regions, we will:

  • Increase student loan forgiveness for an expanded list of health professionals (dentists, pharmacists, social workers, mental health practitioners and others) who choose to work in rural communities; and
  • Create a tax incentive to make it easier to set up a health practice in these communities.

Will you support Justin Trudeau and the Liberal plan to move Canada’s public health care system forward?
