Care to Chat: Join us for a conversation with award-winning journalist and health columnist André Picard

BC Care Providers Association (BCCPA) invites you to join us on April 22, 2025 for an engaging conversation between Terry Lake, CEO of BCCPA and André Picard, an award-winning health reporter and columnist for The Globe and Mail, as well as the author of six bestselling books, including Neglected No More: The Urgent Need to Improve the Lives of Canada’s Elders in the Wake of a Pandemic.

This discussion will explore the challenges facing Canada’s seniors living and care sector within the broader healthcare system—and how we, as a society, can collectively address the needs of an aging population.

Key topics will include Canada’s response (or lack thereof) to the COVID-19 pandemic and its disproportionate impact on seniors and the aged care sector; the potential for another pandemic and lessons learned; a plan for unpaid family caregivers; the need for interoperable electronic health records; the challenges posed by the Canada Health Act; and more!

Delegates will leave with a deeper understanding of the issues affecting Canada’s healthcare system and the potential solutions that could shape a better future for the older adults of today and tomorrow.
