US EditionHere’s what the Liberals promised for health care. But can they deliver?
- The Liberals promised several health-care reforms in their 2025 federal election platform, including new funding and regulatory changes across Canada.
- This platform emerged amid low public attention to health care, overshadowed by tense Canada-U.S. Relations and trade disputes during the campaign.
- Key commitments include establishing a standardized credentialing process for doctors and nurses to practice nationwide, launching a fund to assist new clinicians with clinic setup costs, boosting funding for youth mental health services, and enhancing the adoption of digital health technologies.

- Experts express cautious optimism but note challenges, such as provincial licensing control and the need for legislative changes to fund broader mental health care publicly.
