Ont. human rights commission aiming to put a stop to anti-Indigenous discrimination in healthcare

Anti-Indigenous discrimination and racism in the healthcare system is a key determinant of poor Indigenous health outcomes. As part of this project, OHRC’s launching an online survey to gather information about lived experiences from First Nations, Inuit, Métis, and urban Indigenous people who experienced discrimination when receiving healthcare services. The survey also seeks input from family members, caregivers, service providers and others who have witnessed Indigenous-specific discrimination in healthcare. The OHRC intends to work with Indigenous partners to develop human rights policy guidance.
