This event will launch a grass-roots campaign in the Health Studies Program at University College, University of Toronto that will honour the ideas of the "Greatest Canadian", Tommy Douglas, and commemorate the introduction of universal, publicly-funded health care in 1962 in Saskatchewan. Rooted in social justice and human rights, your support will ensure that the Health Studies Program will continue to provide a multidisciplinary foundation of social and health sciences, research and critical political science to inform and train the next generation of engaged citizens committed to preserving and extending public health care, ending inequalities in Canada that produce ill-health and defending the universal human right to well-being.
