The Canadian Health Network (CHN) is a nationally funded Internet-based service designed to improve access to trustworthy health information. The CHN includes the participation of federal, provincial and territorial governments, voluntary and non-governmental organizations and universities. While Health Canada has taken a leadership role in establishing the CHN, the ultimate success of CHN depends on many groups working together. The goal is to have an integrated health information service that is jointly developed and managed by many partners.

Le Réseau canadien de la santé (RCS) est un service national subventionné d'information sur Internet qui vise à favoriser l'accès à une information fiable sur la santé. Le Réseau réunit la participation des gouvernements fédéral, provinciaux et territoriaux, de groupements de bénévoles, d'organismes non gouvernementaux et d'universités. Bien qu'à l'origine, Santé Canada ait joué un rôle prépondérant dans la création du Réseau, l'objectif ultime est de mettre en place un service intégré d'information sur la santé, dont le développement et la gestion relèveront de nombreux partenaires.
