Petition to the Minister of Health
- the 2011 Report from the Parliamentary Committee on Palliative and Compassionate Care outlined the importance of quality palliative care, which must be available to all Canadians in order for there to be a real choice at end of life;
- upwards of 70% of Canadians do not have access to quality palliative care; and
- Canadians deserve to be treated with care and compassion during their last days to live as well as they can for as long they can.
