The stars are finally aligning to make Canada the best place in the world to give and receive care. In the last budget, the federal government made an unprecedented commitment to a National Caregiving Strategy.

Now that we have a commitment, it is time to move to real, concrete action to ease the many pressures that caregivers and care providers face every day.
