The Ontario Public Health Association’s Alcohol Workgroup is pleased to host this overview of the recent Canadian Alcohol Policy Evaluation (CAPE) project as it pertains to Ontario. The webinar will also provide updates regarding OPHA’s recent actions to influence alcohol policy and share upcoming opportunities to get involved.
Does the health of Ontarians have to come at the expense of consumer choice and convenience?
The Provincial Government has recently indicated that they plan to further expand alcohol product availability in Ontario. This webinar will examine alcohol policy and what the government can do to reduce alcohol related harm to the Ontario population, not just individuals. Best practice policies exist to protect people from alcohol harms, to what degree is Ontario implementing these policies? What is the province doing well, and where is work needed?
CAPE provides rigorous assessments of how well provincial, territorial and the federal governments in Canada are implementing policies proven to reduce harm from alcohol use. We welcome the following members of the CAPE team who will present Ontario’s alcohol policy findings:
Recommendations for strengthening Ontario’s policy response to alcohol harms will also be explored. Following the presentation, there will be time for Q and A.
CAPE has a track record of strengthening Canada’s response to alcohol-related harm. A suite of CAPE 3.0 knowledge translation (KT) products is available on the CAPE website.
