Thank you for your question.
The action plan on palliative care, which was mentioned by Marcel, sets out Health Canada's approach to addressing those barriers. It includes activities to raise awareness about palliative care and end-of-life care planning. It includes activities to look at training for health care providers as well as supports for caregivers. It also includes activities to look at research and data to improve those across Canada. As well, it looks at underserved populations, areas of population that may not receive as much palliative care, for a variety of reasons. It also looks at palliative care received by indigenous groups and populations, including first nations, Inuit and Métis.
