The social determinants of health are the living and working conditions that shape whether we remain healthy or become ill. These social determinants of health are shaped by public policy made by Canadian governments. The last 20 years has seen public policy operating in such a way as to threaten health rather than support it. This is a reflection of the growing dominance of the corporate and business sector on Canadian life -growing income and wealth inequalities, precarious work and unstable employment and deteriorating working and living conditions for many Canadians. It is well documented that these conditions are the ones that lead to poor health as well as social disruption. This book aims to educate Canadians about these issues and provide means by which they are to be addressed.
