What a week ⁦@masslbp⁩ . One team in BC wrapping up ourcare.ca just as another arrives in Winnipeg for digitalassembly.ca. I can’t cheer loudly enough for my colleagues who work their hearts out so that Canadians can do politics differently.

Thrilled to wake up to the voices of @tara_kiran and the OurCare panelists on the radio this morning and to be able to share the Ontario panel's report: ourcare.ca More to come from across the country! #OurCare
Great to see @CBCNews cover the first OurCare report on primary care. Approx 1/3 of deliberative processes in Canada have been health care-related. Why? The issues are complex and govs are more likely to recognize that citizens/patients need a say and have solutions. #delibwave
