A landmark moment for health research in @Canada: the new federal AI Strategy includes up to $100 million to scale Vital, the St. Michael's Hospital-led health data platform, across the country.
It's a major step toward securely connecting Canada's health data nationwide, so researchers can turn it into faster discoveries, earlier diagnoses, and better care for patients. This is the kind of approach we champion at OBI through our Centre for Analytics federated learning platform NeuroFL, and the national investment we called for in our April 2026 federal pre-budget submission.

June is Seniors Month! 🎉
At the NIA, we believe growing older is something to be celebrated. Seniors Month is a powerful reminder of the resilience, experience and ongoing contributions of older adults in Canada.
Older adults are at the heart of our communities—serving as caregivers, leaders, volunteers and knowledge keepers. To truly honour these contributions, we must also advocate for the systems, policies and supports that enable people to age with dignity, confidence and respect.
This June, join us in celebrating older Canadians and reaffirming our commitment to creating communities, workplaces and services that support people to thrive at every stage of life.

Rural #LTC homes like Broadview Nursing Home in Smiths Falls are vital to their communities. Replacing an older home with an up-to-date building has made it possible for seniors who need care to stay close to people and places they love – and for nearly 170 people to continue to have jobs in the community.
Construction in rural communities also brings major economic benefits. Building Broadview Nursing Home contributed $69 million to GDP and $48.2 million in labour income.
