In Germany America’s economic failure contributed to the rise of Adolf Hiltler, so the Stock Market Crash had a domino effect on our country and others. In America there were 16 million unemployed, which was about one third of the available labor force (Livingston1).

What do you propose be done to improve the social determinants of health in Canada? As pointed out earlier, it will be very difficult to improve the social determinants of health in Canada. This is not to say that it is impossible, however it will take a tremendous amount of effort and community teamwork to attain desirable outcomes.

Partnering with local hospitals and urgent care centers to connect with clients that recently suffered from exacerbations would be another area that I would immerse our attentions.

The Asthma Action Team program’s success was demonstrated 2007, the rate of pediatric ED visits was 855 per 1,000 children. In 2012, that number had dropped to 267 per 1,000 (Figley, 2014, p.1). This evidence based research motivates my initiative to see even greater success with the increase of
In Canada, healthcare is provided to its citizens regardless if the individual is able to pay for healthcare service or not. But Canada and the United States both have negatives and positives within their health care systems for instance; the United States is known for providing exceptional health care to its residents; although for one to utilize all of the available options you have to pay for services. In Canada although health services are provided to everyone, the waiting time for citizens to be seen in the hospitals and clinics is a long one. After assessing both countries health care systems we are now able to understand and identify what is working and what needs
Child Poverty in Canada Since the late 1900s, child poverty has been a been a large issue in Canada. As Canadians, there are many things we should be proud of, from our large nation, to our natural resources and our multiculturalism, but the the amount of children that live in poverty in Canada is shameful. Canada ranks 24th out of 35 developed countries for child poverty. As a modern, developed country, it is the duty of the Canadian government to take care of the citizens that cannot take care of themselves, such as children, the poor and the elderly. Every month, 770,000 people in Canada use food banks, with forty percent of those people being children.

Victorian paramedics are the most underpaid in the country, and yes, in comparison to WA, they are receiving $23,000 less in their yearly salary. These paramedics have been persistently protesting for some appeal. It can also be said that the stress the paramedics are put under can be detrimental to their health
Our Health Care System is Breaking Down The Canadian healthcare system affects each and every citizen of this country, and lets face the facts, it is slowly crumbling. The hospitals are short staffed, there’s not enough equipment or supplies for patients, and there’s consistent overcrowding. These are just a few of the issues that must be dealt with efficiently in order to remain enjoying our standards of living. Canada has a health care system that is already paid for through taxes, including both income and sales tax. All Canadian citizens are covered, and they can choose to see any doctor of their preference, anywhere in the country, without having to deal with co pays or deductibles.
It is widely acknowledged that mental illness is more of a personal issue which lacks attentive and satisfactory public policy. In David Gratzer’s article “Mental illness: A depressing failure of public policy” that emerged in The Globe and Mail on August 15, 2014, Gratzer argues that mental illness is a human and societal tragedy by referencing the study of Danish and the analysis for Mental Health Commission of Canada.
