Consultations

Health Canada regularly conducts consultations with the public and other interested stakeholders which provide the department with an opportunity to hear what Canadians are thinking on a particular issue. The input obtained during these consultations helps form policies and legislation that reflect the concerns of Canadians.

You can visit the  Canada Gazette and  Consulting with Canadians websites for information on consultations at Health Canada, the Public Health Agency of Canada and other federal departments/agencies.
