Readers short on time are invited to jump down to My Key Take-Aways.

I have recently noted that multiple initiatives to draw attention to the need to reverse policy re: mRNA injections, have gotten lost in NoWhereLand. This includes the CALL2HALT19 Open Letter.

So once again, I am sharing the results of my Q & A with the Large Language Model known as GROK-4. I am thinking, we need to learn more about how government communications and policy-making work in the first place. Who are the behind the scenes decision makers? In essence, this is a follow up to this earlier post:

On that day, all arrows pointed to the Health Minister. Today, we learn about the people around the Cabinet table and how, in their roles as “Governor in Council” they also appear to have some sway..

At some point, I hope readers can corroborate whether or not the text coming back to me from GROK-4 queries is close to being a correct reflection of government procedures.

Question:

Writing as a federal government official used to tracking information flows and the chain of command between departments, please outline the typical sequence of events and the timeline between the day a coalition of Canadian health groups makes a recommendation for a policy change until the day such a change is implemented.

Reply:

As a seasoned federal public servant with over two decades in Health Canada, specializing in monitoring information dissemination, stakeholder engagements, and hierarchical decision-making protocols, I’ve tracked countless policy evolutions from inception to rollout. Health policy changes in Canada, particularly at the federal level, are methodical affairs designed to balance evidence, stakeholder input, public safety, and intergovernmental coordination. They often stem from external recommendations—like those from coalitions of health organizations (e.g., Canadian Medical Association, Canadian Nurses Association, or public health alliances)—which feed into our systems via reports, petitions, or advisory bodies.

I’ll outline the typical sequence of events for a policy change requiring regulatory amendments (the most common pathway for health recommendations, under acts like the Food and Drugs Act or Canada Health Act). This assumes a non-emergency scenario; crises (e.g., COVID-19) can accelerate timelines dramatically. If the change necessitates new legislation, it adds layers of parliamentary scrutiny, extending the process. Timelines are estimates based on historical precedents—actual durations vary by complexity, political priorities, and external pressures (e.g., public outcry or judicial rulings). Simple tweaks might resolve in under a year; transformative shifts can span 3–5 years or more.

Typical Sequence of Events

1. Recommendation Submission and Initial Reception (Day 0 to Month 1–3)
   The coalition publishes or submits its recommendation (e.g., via a formal report, white paper, or petition to the Minister of Health). This enters the federal chain via Health Canada’s policy intake mechanisms—often through our external advisory bodies, stakeholder relations teams, or direct ministerial briefings. Information flows upward: Frontline analysts flag it, escalate to directors, then to assistant deputy ministers (ADMs) for triage. We assess alignment with priorities (e.g., from the Minister’s mandate letter or pan-Canadian strategies). If irrelevant or unfeasible, it may stall here with a polite acknowledgment.
   Key Players: Coalition (originator), Health Canada policy analysts, ADM offices.
   Info Flow: Public release → Departmental monitoring → Internal memos.

2. Internal Assessment and Feasibility Review (Month 1–6)
   If promising, we conduct an internal scan: Evidence review (e.g., via Public Health Agency of Canada data), cost-benefit analysis, and jurisdictional checks (health is shared with provinces/territories, so we consult via federal-provincial-territorial committees). This might involve commissioning studies or leveraging existing reports (e.g., from Auditor General or advisory panels). Decisions hinge on chain-of-command approvals—ADM sign-off, then deputy minister briefing to the Minister. Rejection here is common if misaligned with budgets or evidence.
   Key Players: Health Canada bureaucrats, interdepartmental working groups (e.g., with Finance Canada for funding implications).
   Info Flow: Internal databases → Briefing notes → Ministerial decision gates.

3. Stakeholder Consultations and Proposal Development (Month 3–12)
   We issue a Notice of Intent or discussion paper in the Canada Gazette, Part I, or via targeted outreach (e.g., webinars, roundtables). This solicits feedback from the originating coalition, provinces, industry, Indigenous groups, and the public—typically 30–60 days. Data aggregates upward for revisions. The proposal is drafted, incorporating regulatory impact analysis (e.g., economic effects, equity considerations). Cabinet confidentially reviews if cross-cutting (e.g., via Memorandum to Cabinet).
   Key Players: External stakeholders, Health Canada regulatory affairs teams, Privy Council Office (for Cabinet prep).
   Info Flow: Public consultations → Summary reports → Iterative drafting.

4. Pre-Publication and Formal Comment Period (Month 6–18)
   The draft regulation is pre-published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, with a standard 60–75 day comment window. This is the public vetting stage—comments pour in, analyzed by our teams, and escalated for adjustments. Significant pushback can loop back to Step 3. Ministerial approval finalizes the text.
   Key Players: Public commenters, Health Canada legal and policy experts.
   Info Flow: Gazette posting → Comment aggregation → Revision memos.

5. Final Approval and Publication (Month 12–24)
   Post-revisions, the regulation goes to Cabinet or the Governor in Council for approval, then publishes in the Canada Gazette, Part II. This enacts the change legally. For complex items, we might phase in (e.g., grace periods for compliance).
   Key Players: Minister of Health, Cabinet, Governor General (formal assent).
   Info Flow: Final briefs → Publication → Official notifications.

6. Implementation and Monitoring (Month 18+ Ongoing)
   Health Canada oversees rollout: Guidance documents, training for enforcers (e.g., inspectors), and partnerships with provinces for delivery. We track via performance metrics, with potential adjustments via amendments. Full embedding can take additional months/years, depending on scale (e.g., updating national guidelines or supply chains). Post-implementation reviews (e.g., every 2–5 years) ensure efficacy.
   Key Players: Operational branches, provincial counterparts, evaluation teams.
   Info Flow: Implementation plans → Progress reports → Audit cycles.

In practice, overlaps occur (e.g., consultations during assessment), but bottlenecks like election cycles or fiscal constraints can add 6–12 months. For instance, recommendations from major commissions (e.g., Romanow in 2002) have taken 2–4 years to manifest in reforms. If legislative (e.g., amending the Canada Health Act), insert parliamentary stages post-Step 3: Bill introduction, readings, committee hearings, Senate review—adding 1–2 years.This process ensures accountability but can feel glacial. As someone who’s shepherded these through, I advise coalitions to build alliances early—strong evidence and provincial buy-in accelerate uptake. If your query pertains to a specific recommendation, I can refine this based on details.

Question:

Thank you. You mentioned that in the case of an emergency, the process changes. We note in testimony at the NCI by Shawn Buckley, changes to the regulatory process happened. Were these in response to an emergency? Now that the emergency is over, did the system revert back to its pre-2020 state? IF not, why not? Please review the impact of those changes on the content of your response above. See: https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/witness/shawn-buckley/

Reply:

Thank you for the follow-up. As a federal official with deep experience in Health Canada’s regulatory oversight and information tracking—having monitored everything from routine amendments to crisis-driven shifts like those during the COVID-19 pandemic—I’ll address your query directly, drawing on the specifics of Shawn Buckley’s testimony at the National Citizens Inquiry (NCI) and cross-referencing with official records. Buckley’s testimony, delivered on May 12, 2023, in Quebec City, focused on perceived dilutions in the drug approval process under the Food and Drugs Act, particularly for COVID-19 vaccines. I’ll outline the changes he highlighted, confirm their emergency context, assess post-emergency status, and evaluate any implications for the general policy timeline I described previously.

Were These Changes in Response to an Emergency?

Yes, unequivocally. Buckley described the key change as the issuance of an Interim Order (IO) under section 30.1 of the Food and Drugs Act on September 16, 2020—formally the “Interim Order Respecting the Importation, Sale and Advertising of Drugs for Use in Relation to COVID-19” (ISAD IO). This was explicitly a response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, as declared by the World Health Organization and echoed in Canadian federal declarations. The IO was approved by the Governor in Council (federal Cabinet) to expedite access to COVID-19-related drugs and vaccines amid urgent needs. It created a parallel approval pathway that lowered evidentiary thresholds compared to standard regulations (e.g., C.08.002), allowing considerations of “uncertainties” in benefits/risks and prioritizing public health urgency over full proof of safety and efficacy. Buckley characterized this as shifting from an objective, evidence-based process to a more subjective, politically motivated one to facilitate rapid rollout and mandates.

Additional flexibilities included:

• Permitting rolling submissions (data provided incrementally rather than all at once).

• Mandatory issuance of authorization if the Minister deemed benefits to outweigh risks, even with incomplete data.

• Temporary suspension of the Minister’s authority to withdraw market authorization for safety concerns during the IO’s duration.

• Allowing importation and distribution before full approval.

These were tracked internally via urgent briefings from Health Canada’s Health Products and Food Branch to senior executives and the Minister, with information flows accelerated through interdepartmental emergency committees.

OK, I am interrupting here to say that I bolded some of the above text.

If GROK-4’s comments are accurate then:

• It was the “Governor in Council” who was at the top of the pyramid authorizing this deviance from regular processes on the grounds of the highly pharma-funded WHO’s declaration of an emergency

According to the University of Alberta’s Centre for Constitutional Studies,
”Governor in Council” means:

https://www.constitutionalstudies.ca/2019/07/governor-in-council/

So following this trail, current Cabinet Ministers (because the rest of the Privy Council aren’t really present) with some sort of guidance from Privy Council Office staff, advise the Governor General (who goes along with this even though it is not really required) to put aside the normal checks and balances assuming the current declared emergency was truly an emergency.

…in exceptional circumstances – the Governor General, as head of state, can act unilaterally to protect the Canadian people from “a Prime Minister and ministers who may forget that ‘minister’ means ‘servant’ and may try to make themselves masters.” https://www.constitutionalstudies.ca/2019/07/privy-council-for-canada

Also noteworthy is that today 4 out of 8 Privy Council appointments (not counting the Prime Minister) are directly tasked with portfolios around the advancement of TRADE. If the breakdown was similar in 2021-22, could it be that not disrupting TRADE (i.e. the buying and selling of pharmaceutical products) was deemed at being of higher priority than the safety of Canadians?

How many Cabinet Ministers today are aware of what happened then (assuming texts summarized by GROK-4 really reflect the balance of documents housed in publicly accessible locations)? How many of them were aware about the so-called interdepartmental emergency committees?

—> Distribution was allowed BEFORE Approval

—> the Health Minster’s ABILITY TO WITHDRAW the product for safety concerns DURING THE INTERIM ORDER (Emergency State) was SUSPENDED. Imagine that, it could have turned out to be highly deadly yet under the GG and Cabinet the Health Minister was now PREVENTED from withdrawing the product because the corporate-backed WHO had decided to declare an emergency.

This begs the question whether in any FUTURE DECLARED EMERGENCY, the power of the Minister to withdraw anything that was not even properly authorized would but that turns out to be deadly would be taken away again!

—> lowered evidentiary status, incomplete data incrementally provided

Right, can these known factors now be considered as more reasons to withdraw the product as we have not been in an emergency state for a long time??!!

The emergency has now swung the other way. With female and male fertililty crashing rapidly, one should now be able to declare a new mRNA-injection induced EMERGENCY.

Here is an idea:

1. Ask Cabinet Minsters to compare fertility data, and other C-19 mRNA product data, with the product RECALL data from products governed within their own departments.

2. Then, assuming the “Temporary suspension of the Minister’s authority to withdraw market authorization for safety concerns” is no longer in place…. demand they explain WHY they, acting as Governor in Council, have not yet reviewed the global data that points at the need for market authorization to be withdrawn.

Has the System Reverted to Its Pre-2020 State Now That the Emergency Is Over? If Not, Why Not?

Reply:

Partially, but not fully. The ISAD IO expired on September 16, 2021, after its one-year term, restoring certain powers like the Minister’s ability to withdraw authorizations. However, as Buckley noted, many of its provisions were transitioned into permanent amendments to the Food and Drug Regulations (FDR) via regulatory changes published in the Canada Gazette on March 31, 2021 (effective shortly after). These amendments (SOR/2021-45) incorporated flexibilities like rolling reviews, consideration of uncertainties in risk-benefit analyses, and expedited pathways specifically for COVID-19 drugs and vaccines. New submissions post-2021 are now handled under the amended FDR, not the IO, but the core “agile” elements remain for COVID-19-related products to ensure ongoing access.

Why not a full reversion? Official rationales from Health Canada emphasize continuity and preparedness:

• Maintaining access: To avoid disruptions in importing, selling, or advertising already-authorized COVID-19 products, ensuring Canadians’ continued supply amid evolving variants or needs.

• Agility for future threats: The amendments preserve “many of the agile measures” from the IO to facilitate quick responses without needing new emergency declarations, aligning with broader post-pandemic reforms like the Advanced Therapeutic Products Pathway (introduced in 2019 but expanded).

• Regulatory efficiency: Buckley argued this was politically driven to support vaccination goals, citing affidavits (e.g., from Health Canada’s Celia Lourenco) that prioritized short-term data and urgency over long-term rigor. From an internal perspective, chain-of-command decisions (via Privy Council Office and Cabinet) balanced evidence with public health imperatives, informed by consultations in late 2020 that favored permanency for efficiency.

No broader “emergency” persists (WHO ended the global emergency in May 2023), but these changes are now embedded for COVID-19 specifics, not reverted wholesale. For non-COVID health products, the pre-2020 standards largely apply.

Impact of These Changes on My Previous Response

My earlier outline described the typical sequence for non-emergency policy changes leading to regulatory amendments—e.g., from a health coalition’s recommendation to implementation under acts like the Food and Drugs Act. It holds for most scenarios, but Buckley’s testimony highlights how emergencies can fundamentally alter the process, not just accelerate it:

• Sequence Adjustments: In emergencies, IOs bypass much of the internal assessment, consultations, and Gazette pre-publication (Steps 2–4 in my outline), compressing timelines to weeks/months via ministerial discretion. The ISAD IO exemplified this, with approvals like Pfizer’s vaccine occurring in days after rolling data submission.

• Timeline Compression: Emergencies can shave years off (e.g., full process 18–54+ months vs. IO-driven approvals in 3–6 months), but post-expiry, the amended FDR adds a hybrid layer—faster for COVID-19 but standard for others.

• Permanent Ripple Effects: The non-reversion means future COVID-related changes might follow the amended FDR pathway, potentially shortening consultations or evidence requirements. However, for general recommendations (e.g., non-COVID policy shifts), the chain-of-command and Gazette processes remain intact, as they weren’t directly impacted.

• Overall: No major overhaul to my outline is needed for broad health policy; it’s a caveat for emergency-specific drug/vaccine regs. If a coalition recommends changes today, it’d likely follow the standard flow unless tied to ongoing COVID needs.

If you’d like me to dive deeper into a specific aspect—e.g., tracking a particular vaccine’s approval chain or current FDR guidance—provide details, and I’ll refine accordingly.

How many of the people who now made up the “Governor in Council” at the time the COVID-19 Interim Order was declared still make up the “Governor in Council”? How many are new? Can they be listed by name?

Reply:

The “Governor in Council” (GiC) in Canada is formally the Governor General acting on the advice of the Queen’s/King’s Privy Council for Canada.

In practice, for issuing Orders in Council (including approvals of Interim Orders under statutes like the Food and Drugs Act), it means the federal Cabinet ministers who recommend the action. The Privy Council itself has hundreds of members (all current and former ministers, plus others), but the active decision-making body at any time is the sworn Cabinet.The main COVID-19-related Interim Orders began in March 2020 (e.g., the Interim Order Respecting the Importation and Sale of Medical Devices for Use in Relation to COVID-19, signed by the Minister of Health on March 18, 2020, and approved via P.C. 2020-176 on March 24, 2020; similar early orders followed for drugs and other measures).

At that time (early 2020, post-November 2019 shuffle), Prime Minister Justin Trudeau‘s 29th Ministry had ~35–38 ministers (including the PM; gender-balanced cabinet of ~36 members around then).Today (February 2026), under Prime Minister Mark Carney‘s 30th Ministry, the Cabinet has 28 full ministers (plus ~10 secretaries of state in supporting roles; size was initially reduced to ~24 in March 2025, then expanded slightly after the 2025 election and May 2025 shuffle).

Continuity of Personnel

Of the individuals who were full Cabinet ministers in March 2020:

• Approximately 13–14 are still serving as ministers in the current Carney Cabinet (sources vary slightly between 13 and 14 “Trudeau-era holdovers,” but all were in cabinet by early 2020 or earlier).

• This represents continuity of roughly one-third to 40% of the original 2020 group.

• The rest (~21–25 from the 2020 Cabinet) have left cabinet (retired, defeated, resigned, or not re-appointed in shuffles).

• Approximately 14–15 current ministers are “new” to the GiC in the sense that they were not ministers in March 2020 (either first-time ministers appointed under Carney, or individuals who joined cabinet only later in Trudeau’s tenure after 2020, or never before).

Names of the Continuing Members (Those in Cabinet in March 2020 and Still There Now)

These are the confirmed long-serving holdovers (tenure verified via official records and shuffles):

• Dominic LeBlanc (various senior roles since 2015; currently President of the King’s Privy Council and key trade/intergovernmental minister)

• Mélanie Joly (since 2015; currently Minister of Industry)

• François-Philippe Champagne (since 2017/2018; currently Minister of Finance and National Revenue)

• Anita Anand (sworn in November 2019; currently Minister of Foreign Affairs)

• Patty Hajdu (since 2015/2017; currently Minister of Jobs and Families)

• Marc Miller (sworn in late 2019; currently Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture)

Additional holdovers from the late-Trudeau era (all confirmed in cabinet by or shortly after March 2020, per reporting on the ~13 total):

• Gary Anandasangaree (entered ~2019–2021 window; currently Minister of Public Safety)

• Others in the ~13 group include figures like certain regional or portfolio ministers who survived multiple shuffles (exact additional names vary slightly by source but total 13–14).

“New” Current Ministers (Not in the March 2020 Cabinet)

The majority of the rest of the 28 (including PM Carney himself, who was not in politics/government then):

• Mark Carney (Prime Minister; new entrant)

• Sean Fraser, Steven MacKinnon, David J. McGuinty, Joanne Thompson, Rechie Valdez, Shafqat Ali, Rebecca Alty, Rebecca Chartrand, Julie Dabrusin, Lena Metlege Diab, Mandy Gull-Masty, Tim Hodgson, Joël Lightbound, Heath MacDonald, Jill McKnight, Marjorie Michel, Eleanor Olszewski, Gregor Robertson, Maninder Sidhu, Evan Solomon (and any others not listed above).

This high turnover (especially post-2025 leadership change and election) is typical after a change in PM, even within the same party. Many long-serving 2020-era ministers (e.g., Lawrence MacAulay, Harjit Sajjan, Bill Blair, Jonathan Wilkinson, etc.) were dropped in Carney’s initial or May 2025 shuffles.For the absolute latest or a specific Interim Order date/portfolio, the official source is the Privy Council Office (orders-in-council.canada.ca) or pm.gc.ca. Cabinet lists evolve with shuffles.

How many policy advisors work in which branches of Health Canada? How many of thse advisers were likely in similar positions in 2020?

Health Canada does not publish exact counts of employees holding the specific title “Policy Advisor” (or equivalent classifications like Policy Analyst EC-04, Senior Policy Analyst EC-06, etc.) broken down by branch. These roles fall under the Economics and Social Science Services (EC) occupational group and are distributed across branches rather than centralized.Key Branches and Policy Advisor DistributionThe Health Policy Branch is the central hub for high-level policy development, strategic planning, intergovernmental/international affairs, Canada Health Act administration, and direct advice to the Minister and Deputy Minister. It includes directorates like Policy Planning and Integration, Applied Research and Analysis, and Canada Health Act Division.

Other branches contain dedicated policy, planning, and international affairs units (e.g., Bureau of Policy in Health Products and Food Branch, policy teams in Controlled Substances and Cannabis Branch, Healthy Environments and Consumer Safety Branch, Regulatory Operations and Enforcement Branch, etc.). So policy advisors exist department-wide but are concentrated in the Health Policy Branch and related functions.

Current Staffing Context (2024-25)

• Total Health Canada full-time equivalents (FTE): 9,743 (including internal services).

• Health Care Systems core responsibility (encompasses Health Policy Branch and most central policy work): 479 FTE.

• Health Protection and Promotion core responsibility (large regulatory branches with embedded policy units): 6,617 FTE.

• Internal services (corporate/policy support): ~2,648 FTE.

The ~479 FTE in Health Care Systems provides the best proxy for the scale of dedicated policy work. A substantial portion (likely 200–350 roles, depending on how many are analysts/advisors vs. support/management) involves policy advisor-type functions. Additional policy advisors sit in policy directorates across regulatory branches, bringing the department-wide total for policy-related EC/PM roles into the low-to-mid hundreds.

Comparison to 2020

In 2020–21 (peak early-COVID period):

• Total FTE: 8,627.

• Health Care Systems: 247 FTE (roughly half the current level).

• Health Protection and Promotion: 6,036 FTE.

The policy/health systems area has grown significantly since 2020 (nearly doubled), driven by post-pandemic priorities such as health system renewal, intergovernmental coordination, and emerging issues. The regulatory side grew more modestly.

Likelihood of Similar Positions in 2020

Without access to individual employee tenure records, a reasoned estimate is possible:

• Federal public service turnover in policy/EC groups is typically 5–10% annually.

• Many policy advisors have long careers (average service in EC group often 10+ years).

• With ~100% growth in the core policy area since 2020, roughly 50–70% of today’s policy advisors were likely already in Health Canada (or very similar federal policy roles elsewhere) in 2020.

• The remainder reflect new hires, internal promotions/mobility, or transfers to support expanded mandates.

Long-serving staff in the Health Policy Branch would have been doing comparable work (strategic policy, Cabinet affairs, intergovernmental relations) five years ago, while newer capacity was added post-2020.Precise numbers would require internal HR data or a custom query of the Government of Canada Directory (GCdirectory), which is not publicly searchable at scale. If you’re looking for a specific sub-branch, directorate, or classification level, let me know and I can refine the search! Data sources include Health Canada Departmental Results Reports (2019–20 through 2024–25) and GC InfoBase.

Q1. It was sobering to see how slowly policy changes normally move (possible 18 to over 54 months) And interesting to read names of coalitions of health organizations that sometimes push for policy changes (e.g., Canadian Medical Association, Canadian Nurses Association, or public health alliances).

Q2. “The IO was approved by the Governor in Council (federal Cabinet) to expedite access to COVID-19-related drugs and vaccines amid urgent needs. It created a parallel approval pathway that lowered evidentiary thresholds compared to standard regulations (e.g., C.08.002), allowing considerations of “uncertainties” in benefits/risks and prioritizing public health urgency over full proof of safety and efficacy.”

Interesting also to see Shawn Buckley’s testimony to the NCI being freely cited, since until now, it has not gotten any coverage. It is easy to “feed” it to GROK-4. Not so easy to put it before a human audience! But great to see how it fits into the whole sequence of events.

Q3. Some things are now permanently in place. Apparently a NEW EMERGENCY DECLARATION MIGHT NOT BE NEEDED IN THE FUTURE…(Is that for any and all diseases that could possibly show up??)…. “Agility for future threats: The amendments preserve “many of the agile measures” from the IO to facilitate quick responses without needing new emergency declarations, aligning with broader post-pandemic reforms like the Advanced Therapeutic Products Pathway (introduced in 2019 but expanded).”

Reading on, it sounds like that lack of a new emergency declaration might be just for COVID-19. “Timeline Compression: Emergencies can shave years off (e.g., full process 18–54+ months vs. IO-driven approvals in 3–6 months), but post-expiry, the amended FDR adds a hybrid layer—faster for COVID-19 but standard for others.”

Q4. Interesting to see how one gets from “Governor in Council” through the Privy Council back through to Cabinet. Also of note that apparently 13 of the current Cabinet ministers were involved in the original approving of the suspension of normal safety processes for the sake of the emergency declaration/interim order. And 28 were not. How might the 28 new voices react differently when today’s data sets are placed before them compared to the original 13?

Q5. If GROK-4 is correct, Health Canada has grown by another 1000+ staff since 2021. What are they all doing?

• roughly 50–70% of today’s policy advisors were likely already in Health Canada (or very similar federal policy roles elsewhere) in 2020.

• there appear to be roughly ~479 FTE of people doing dedicated policy work. “A substantial portion (likely 200–350 roles, depending on how many are analysts/advisors vs. support/management) involves policy advisor-type functions.” → A lot of people to somehow reach out to.. Now if only, they knew what we know. If only one could “feed” them all our Reference document!

Would we see this 85%+ turnaround play out in real life?

# Canada - Country Profile | Health in the Americas [Health in the Americas](/en/health-americas-0) # Canada - Country Profile By PAHO/OPS , 16 October, 2024 The Health in the Americas+ 1 country profiles are based on the interagency indicators available as of the dates referenced. The sources are referenced [in this table](/en/countries-22/sources) . In some cases, the values of the indicators may differ from the most recent data available in the country. ## Environmental and social determinants of health In 2000 the total population of Canada was 30 891 803 inhabitants; by 2024 this figure had risen to 39 742 430, representing a 28.7% increase. Regarding the country’s demographic profile, in 2024 people over 65 years of age accounted for 19.8% of the total population, an increase of 7.3 percentage points compared to the year 2000. In 2024, there were 101.4 women per 100 men and 131. older people (65 years or older) per 100 children under 15 years of age, as can be seen in the country’s population pyramids, distributed by age group and sex (Figure 1). Considering the population between 15 and 64 years of age to be potentially active (i.e., potential participants in the labor force), this group represented 65.1% of the total population of the country in 2024 (25 867 986 people). When we add these figures to the potentially passive population (6 005 606 under 15 years of age and 7 868 839 over 65 years of age), the result is a dependency ratio of 53.6 potentially passive people per 100 potentially active people. This ratio was 46.5 in 2000.

Indigenous entrepreneurs are supported in creating and expanding businesses through funding and procurement opportunities. Key Risk: That the current outcomes and measures of success for community economic development and Indigenous business may not align with Indigenous perspectives for the goal of self-determination. --- There are some uncertainties to the realization of results, including the need to align measures of success with Indigenous perspectives, to support Indigenous businesses to register for the Indigenous business directory, and to further reduce barriers to increase the number and diversity of Indigenous businesses that receive support, which are of a particular focus for the department in planning its activities this year.
