Minister of Health Mandate Letter

Dear Minister Duclos: Thank you for agreeing to serve Canadians as Minister of Health. From the beginning of this pandemic, Canadians have faced a once-in-a-century challenge. And through it all, from coast to coast to coast, people have met the moment. When it mattered most, Canadians adapted, helped one another, and stayed true to our values of compassion, courage and determination. That is what has defined our path through this pandemic so far. And that is what will pave our way forward.

Prime Minister of Canada
