In April 2001, the federal government established the Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada to review Medicare-Canada's universally accessible, publicly funded health care system-and recommend policies and measures to improve the system and its long-term sustainability. The Commission embarked on an ambitious effort to ensure that the final recommendations were evidence-based and reflected the values Canadians want in the health care system. Headed by Roy J. Romanow, Q. C., former Attorney General and Deputy Premier of Saskatchewan, the Commission carried out its work in two distinct phases :fact-finding; and consultation and dialogue-engaging Canadians in a national discussion about the future of Canada's health care system. 1, record 2, English, - Commission%20on%20the%20Future%20of%20Health%20Care%20in%20Canada
