There is a new online resource for journalists in Canada covering health-related issues.

EvidenceNetwork.ca links journalists with health-policy experts to provide credible information on the issues that they're reporting on.

The site breaks down health issues into different topics, including the impact of an aging population, costs and spending, funding and delivery of for-profit solutions, and sustainability. Each of these sections contains fact sheets and contact information for experts in the field from across Canada and parts of the U.S.

The resource is a non-partisan project funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Manitoba Health Research Council.
