Our advocacy for a National Strategy on Brain Injury received all-party support and passed unanimously at Second Reading and at committee stage in the 44th Parliament. Such rare unity highlights the shared recognition of the urgent need to address the profound personal, social, and economic impacts of brain injuries.
In 2025, we are headed to a federal election and must continue to champion this cause as we move into the 45th Parliament.
We need your voice to reach candidates!
In preparation for an election, we wrote to party leaders (and potential leaders) asking for their continued support for a National Strategy on Brain Injury. You can view the letters and responses below.

Why this campaign matters:
The economic, healthcare, and social costs of unmanaged brain injury are immense, making a National Strategy on Brain Injury an urgent policy, justice, and financial imperative.
Investing in prevention, care, long-term support, and research will save lives, reduce costs, and ensure fairness for all affected individuals and families.
A National Strategy on Brain Injury is not just a healthcare issue—it is an economic and social justice imperative.
The long-term costs of unmanaged brain injuries on our healthcare, social services, and justice systems are substantial. Investing in a coordinated strategy will reduce costs, transform care, ensure fairness and prioritize people.

Brain Injury: A National Crisis – Ask Your Candidates Where They Stand
Brain injury is a public health crisis affecting millions of Canadians, yet it remains one of the most overlooked and underfunded areas of healthcare policy. Despite unanimous support in the previous parliament and a recommendation from the Standing Committee on Health for a National Strategy on Brain Injury, meaningful action has yet to be taken.
These questions are designed to hold federal election candidates and MPs accountable. Whether you are a survivor, caregiver, service provider, or researcher, your voice matters in ensuring that brain injury is recognized as a national priority. A comprehensive, federally coordinated strategy would improve prevention, care, rehabilitation, and long-term support—ensuring that no one affected by brain injury is left behind.
By asking these critical questions, we can push for real change and demand a future where brain injury is no longer ignored.
