Canada's National Dementia Strategy
On
June 22, Canada became the 30th country to launch a national
dementia strategy. The passing of Bill C-233, An Act respecting a national
strategy for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, means the
Government of Canada will address the overwhelming scale, impact and cost of
dementia.
The Act not only brings Canada in line with many other countries around the
world who have made dementia a priority, but also commits our government to
action with definitive timelines, targets, reporting structures and measurable
outcomes.
