Abstract

There is no doubt that 2023 was a very difficult year for many Canadians, as well as people across the world. War caused massive upheaval globally, inflation continued to impose financial hardship on families and our health systems experienced another brutal respiratory season while still in recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, the year ahead is likely to bring more political and economic uncertainty, although we hope it also brings with it some opportunities for our health system, including the use of artificial intelligence (AI), research advancements and system transformation initiatives.
