Without action, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is projected to affect more than 6.2 million Canadians by 2050.

A new report commissioned by The Kidney Foundation of Canada reinforces the urgent need for governments to prioritize prevention, early detection, equitable access to care, and stronger kidney health data systems.

The findings build on The Kidney Foundation’s National Strategic Framework for Chronic Kidney Disease, which outlines a path toward a more sustainable, proactive kidney care system in Canada.

Kidney disease is not only a health issue — it is a growing economic challenge affecting patients, families, health systems, and the workforce.

Now is the time for coordinated action.

Let’s keep the momentum going.

Thanks to supporters like you, hundreds of people have already stepped up for better kidney care by writing letters to the people who can influence change.

Chronic kidney disease is affecting families, partners, parents, and children across the country, and the cost of inaction grows every single day.

We owe it to the people we love and to ourselves to demand real progress and meaningful action to improve kidney health. Sign the official House of Commons e-petition to help push this work forward: bit.ly/Sign-For-Kidneys

Every voice strengthens the call for a future where kidney care is timely, equitable, and effective for all.
