Equity Analysis of Repeated Cross-Sectional Survey Data on Mental Health Outcomes in Saskatchewan, Canada during Covid-19 Pandemic
This paper aims to understand the impact of COVID-19 on three mental health outcomes-anxiety, depression, and mental health service use. Specifically, whether the associations between social and economic variables and these outcomes are exacerbated or buffered among equity-seeking groups in Saskatchewan. We analyzed secondary datasets of Saskatchewan adults from population-based national surveys conducted by Mental Health Research Canada (MHRC) o…
Governance of Health Care in Canada
Talking to and with Canadians
The Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada, headed by former Saskatchewan premier, Roy Romanow, was one of the most important reports on Canada's health system in recent years. The authors, both intimately involved in its work, offer a critical self-reflection and analysis of the Commission, providing insight into the relationship between the processes involved in how a Royal Commission operates and the mediation of ideas that inform i…
Do Provincial Drug Benefit Initiatives Create an Effective Policy Lab? The Evidence from Canada
Although the costs of doctors' visits and hospital stays in Canada are covered by national public health insurance, the cost of outpatient prescription drugs is not. To solve problems of access, Canadian provinces have introduced provincial prescription drug benefit programs. This study analyzes the prescription drug policymaking process in five Canadian provinces between 1992 and 2004 with a view to (1) determining the federal government's role …
Understanding and improving the health of workers in the new economy
Changes in the nature and experience of work, and the emergence of new forms of injuries and illnesses, call into question the prevailing scientist-led, positivist approach to work and health research. This paper critiques this approach on epistemological, methodological and ethical grounds, arguing that it is not capable of understanding and improving workers’ health in today's global economy. The authors call for a more participatory approach t…
Beyond the divides
The term 'population health' has supplanted that of public health and health promotion in many Anglophone countries. The ideas underlying the term are not new and owe much to the legacies of nineteenth-century public health radicalism, Latin American social medicine and, more recently, social epidemiology. Its influential modeling by the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research in the early 1990s, however, was criticized for a lack of theory, rel…
The Governance of Health Care in Canada
The theme that resonates throughout the contributions is that health care governance has become locked in a cycle of mutual recrimination, blame assigning, and blame avoidance from the federal and provincial levels right down to the level of the individual citizen.
Roles and Responsibilities in Health Care Policy
Intergovernmental relations, social policy and federal transfers after Romanow
This article explores the new and old intergovernmental dynamics around federal transfers to the provinces for health and social policy spending in the aftermath of the Romanow report and the decision to split the Canada Health and Social Transfer (chst) into its two component parts. Though the provinces have agreed to the split, the federal government undertook the allocation of the transfer to the new Canada Health Transfer and the Canada Socia…

Reflections on Jazz and the Politics of Race
I'd certainly like to express my thanks to Jim Merod for this invitation. That composition you just heard [With Toward None] was the very first one I ever wrote. It was the pianist, Gene Keyes, who, after hearing a playback of it in the Chess recording studio, in Chicago, decided it reminded him of that quote from Lincoln's address. Charlie Mingus loved it, and he asked me to do a special arrangement for his band. However, he took the liberty of …
