Sept. 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

For our PCN, reconciliation means continuing to listen, learn, and take meaningful action to create more welcoming, culturally safe, and accessible health-care experiences for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.

There are many ways to mark the day, from attending community gatherings and commemorative events to listening to Indigenous voices and learning more about the history and ongoing legacy of residential schools.

Our new 2025-26 Annual Report highlights the progress we made supporting patients, family doctors, our teams, and our community over the last year.

An annual report can never capture every conversation, appointment, project, or contribution that takes place over 12 months — but it gives us a chance to reflect on our progress.

We helped more people get physiotherapy and nutrition counselling by expanding eligibility, advanced our work on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and enhanced our internal operations.

We also supported our growing membership of family doctors with our programs and services, new educational opportunities, and by engaging with them for feedback that we use to improve.

Celebrating Pride means celebrating the diversity, identities, and experiences that make our communities stronger. It also means recognizing the importance of healthcare spaces where 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals feel safe to ask questions, share concerns, and access the care they need.

We’re celebrating 20 years of supporting primary care in our community! Since our start in August 2006 with about 60 family doctors in our membership, we've grown alongside our membership, teams, and partners to support better care for patients in our community.

To mark this major milestone — our 20th anniversary — we've created a digital timeline highlighting two decades of growth, innovation, and collaboration. From getting established in our early days to building on our foundation and continuously enhancing our support for doctors and patients, the timeline tells the story of our development and contributions to primary care.

As we look back with gratitude, we're also looking ahead. Primary care continues to evolve, and we're committed to supporting family doctors and strengthening patient care in the years ahead.

Please explore our 20th-Anniversary Report and journey over the last two decades here: https://hubs.ly/Q04tCYSd0

Thank you to everyone who has been part of our story over the past 20 years. Here's to the future!

This National Indigenous Peoples Day, we are reflecting on the opportunities we’ve had throughout the year to strengthen our understanding and connection with our Indigenous community members.

This October, our team members attended the Calgary Zone Truth and Reconciliation Event, which provided valuable insights into Indigenous history, culture, and knowledge in a primary care context.

Using information shared by community Elders and Knowledge Keepers, participants brainstormed actionable ways to enhance our support for Indigenous patients.

Learning and collaboration opportunities like this allow us to meaningfully address the systemic barriers faced by Indigenous Peoples and become allies in developing safe, inclusive programs and services.

On this day and all days, we celebrate the traditions, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous Peoples and will continue to foster connection and collaboration through shared understanding.
