This morning, we brought Sneak It In to Parliament Hill!
Ahead of meetings between ParticipACTION’s President and CEO, our Board, and government officials, we brought people together and got talking.
Over coffee, we connected with parliamentarians, staff, senior public servants, sector organizations and partners about something important: investing in physical activity and creating more opportunities for people in Canada to move.
When we make physical activity part of Canada’s broader public health agenda, it becomes a tool for building healthier, more connected communities, and a stronger Canada.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by for a quick conversation, snuck in some movement during their workday, shared an idea, and/or met with us: Secretary of State for Sport, Adam van Koeverden, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Health, Maggie Chi, Associate Deputy Minister of Canadian Heritage, Andrew Brown, Members of Parliament Peter Fonseca, Sonia Sidhu, Iqra Khalid, Madeleine Chenette, and Helena Konanz as well as the Canadian Parks and Recreation Association (CPRA), Volunteer Canada, Outdoor Play Canada, Novo Nordisk and many others!
Getting people in Canada active supports better health and well-being, strengthens social connections, contributes to a stronger economy, and can help build a more sustainable future for everyone.
Let’s keep moving the conversation and Canada forward!
