This does not explain, however, why Toronto and Vancouver — the two Canadian cities currently slated to host 10 group-stage matches between them — are interested. The price tag is outrageous to the point of riot-incitement, and if history is any guide, sure to rise. “The city has signed agreements with FIFA that outline the requirements for hosting, such as condition of the stadium, identifying team training sites, and support of city services to deliver a world-class event,” a city spokesperson told me.

For a world-class health system, Canada needs to think biggerAs anyone working in health care or trying to access health services in this country right now can attest, Canada’s health system is in crisis. The pandemic certainly hasn’t helped matters, but the truth is that Canada’s health system has struggled for decades. Governments at all levels and of all stripes continue to promise fixes, but all they end up doing is pouring too few dollars into a system that doesn’t work for providers or patients. If we want a world-class health system—one that rivals the pride Canadians have in it—then Canada needs to think bigger. Funding is important, and further investments are needed as we deal with rising costs and inflation, an aging population, and decades of underfunding and under resourcing. But we also need to transform how health care is delivered in this country so that it better meets the needs of people across Canada. Canadian health care is built on a 65-year-old foundation that provides public coverage for hospital and physician services. While this approach served Canada well when it had a young, healthy population, Canada’s population is much older now, with the number of people aged 65 and up set to make up 23 per cent of Canada’s population by 2031.

This requires a shift in mindset and a move towards increased collaboration to deliver better health care for people across Canada. Canada must break down the silos i
