Health Canada Healthy Lifestyles [If you want to visit this web site Click Above]
The massive Health Canada site has been divided into Three site summaries for the convenience of the GDSourcing user. The divisions, which follow the classifications of the Health Canada site, are:
Diseases and Conditions, Health Care, Healthy Lifestyles
The website site is integrated into a network of health related sites. There are numerous, extremely useful links. If the topic that you are researching is not listed in this site summary, you may want to try using Health Canada's search engine or A-Z index to find it.
Some information linked from this page is now under the responsibility of the new Public Health Agency of Canada, formerly the Population and Public Health Branch of Health Canada. We will be revising our content over the coming months in order to reflect this change.
