The theme at the Canadian Association for Health Sevices and Policy Research (CAHSPR) Toronto Conference, from May 24, 2017 to May 26, 2017, will be: “Towards an Accord for Change”. The conference participants will explore the contributions of health services research to reaching accord on how to improve Canada’s healthcare system. The word “accord” is used both formally in the context of the federal, provincial, & territorial discussions and agreements; and more broadly in terms of positive working relationships between providers, institutions, regional, provincial and federal governments.
