Although Canada is contiguous to the United States and has
some cultural and historical similarities, Canada’s population
enjoys a vastly superior health status. Reasons are many, can be
traced historically, and are related to a different view of the role
of government. The experience of Canada demonstrates that
neither a heterogeneous population nor a health system that has
to wait for lines for services is the reason for poor health. By
looking critically at what produces good health in Canada, much
can be learned about steps the U.S. might need to take if
population health is its goal.
The Canadian Best Practices Portal challenges Canadian public
health practitioners and researchers to create upstream
interventions aimed at the source of a population health problem
or benefit. What is being done to address the influences on
population health in Canada?
To prepare
for this Assignment Search the Internet and scholarly research
for examples of Canadian “upstream interventions” that can be
put forth as examples of either effective or ineffective efforts to
improve population health.
The Assignment (2–4 pages):
Provide a description of an existing intervention in Canada,
intended to improve health inequities. Include an explanation of
the inequity and how the intervention targets upstream
determinants of health.
Describe the organizations involved and/or social policies
enacted in the implementation of the intervention.
Explain whether or not the intervention was/is successful and
what lessons public health practitioners can learn from that
experience that might improve population health in the United
States.
