Another piece in the same issue also calls on the Canadian Institutes of Health Research to create an "Institute of Racism" to combat alleged systemic discrimination and study "antiracist initiatives on health." https://t.co/luqpZ47HTi

Yes!! "We propose that Canada commit to the dedicated study of the impact of racism and antiracist initiatives on health by creating an Institute of Racism and Health within the CIHR."

An Institute on Racism and Health; brilliant and necessary!
Excellent brief piece calling for the establishment of an Institute of Racism and Health @CIHR_IRSC to represent the commitment of the health research community to ending systemic racism in health care and public health.
An incredibly important argument from Canada for advancing research on the myriad ways racism harms health (and a model for @NIH to follow). (And it is the perfect counter to the putrid US government “1776” report, itself an example of structural racism.)
"Canada does not yet possess the breadth and depth of expertise necessary to address issues regarding racism and health adequately" I too have been hard-pressed to find Canadian data re: race-based health outcomes. We need more data + research funding!
