Canadian Doctors for Medicare

Canadian Doctors for Medicare is an advocacy group committed to the preservation and enhancement of Canada’s universal public health care system. The organization was founded in 2006 by a group of physicians concerned with growing trends in privatization and for-profit delivery, as well as the possibility for these trends to produce a two-tier system that would allow the wealthy to purchase care in the “upper” tier, while the “lower” public tier is left depleted of resources.
