“Today, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we reflect on the traumatic history of residential schools and the loss of those children who never returned home. We also take time to honour the survivors and seek to understand how we can address the legacy of systemic racism that shapes our society today, not just in health care but across systems.
As health care providers, we see firsthand how this painful legacy still impacts our patients. Disparities exist across nearly every major measure of health, including outcomes of mental health, maternal and paediatric health, preventable cancers and even average lifespan.”
Read a message from Roberta Pike, Director of Indigenous Wellness, Reconciliation and Partnerships at Unity Health Toronto, and Altaf Stationwala, President and CEO of Unity Health Toronto, on our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation.
