April 28 is observed annually as the National Day of Mourning for workers who died on the job or from illnesses acquired in the workplace. According to the official numbers accepted by the Workers' Compensation Board, 144 Alberta workers were killed as a result of workplace injuries or illnesses in 2025.

Today at 11 am, family, friends, co-workers, and the broader labour community will gather in Grant Notley Park at the Broken Families Monument for the Edmonton & District Labour Council's annual Day of Mourning commemoration event.

Every year we gather in Grant Notley Park at the Broken Families Monument to honour those who have lost their lives as a result of their jobs in the preceding year. This year our theme is Psychological Safety – The Invisible Threat where we will discuss the broad and long reaching impacts of ps...

On this day in 1984, the Canada Health Act received Royal Assent and became law.

42 years later, the Canada Health Act and the future of Canada's universal public health care are in grave danger because of Alberta's Bill 11. That's why over 50 organizations from across the country have signed onto a letter we sent this morning to Prime Minister Carney 🇨🇦 and federal Health Minister Marjorie Michel urging them to enforce the Canada Health Act to protect Canada’s public health care.

12/11/2025

The Alberta government has passed dangerous legislation that threatens public health care across Canada. Bill 11, The Health Statutes Amendment Act, allows doctors to charge unlimited fees at for-profit clinics for medically necessary procedures while also working in the public system.

Alberta's law sets a dangerous precedent that will spread without federal action. That’s why the Canadian Health Coalition is launching a national campaign to flood Health Minister Marjorie Michel's office and MP offices across the country with one clear message: enforce the Canada Health Act and stop two-tier health care.

It takes just one minute to send your letter. Enter your name, address, and hit send. Your letter will automatically go to Minister Michel and your MP.

Alberta has passed Bill 11 (Health Statutes Amendment Act 2025 No.2), legislation that allows doctors to charge unlimited fees at for-profit clinics for medically necessary procedures while also working in the public system. This American-style approach opens our health care to private insurance cor...
