Book excerpt: The Honourable Minister of Health requested advice on how to establish principles to assist in distinguishing essential from non-essential health care services. Representatives from national and provincial seniors' organizations and from provincial councils attended a one-day workshop organized by the Council to present their views on the principles that should underlie priority-setting in health care. Because seniors remember Canada prior to the development of its public health system, they have an important and unique role to play in any discussions regarding health care reform. NACA's position on determining health care priorities is informed by the views that seniors expressed at the workshop; throughout this report, views expressed at the workshop are quoted to highlight major points. As well, this report benefited substantially from the analyses of health economists and ethicists.

Chapters integrate research and practice to help aspiring and practicing environmental educators, urban planners, and other environmental leaders achieve their goals in terms of education, youth and community development, and environmental quality in cities. The ten-essay series Urban EE Essays, excerpted from Urban Environmental Education Review, may be found here: naaee.org/eepro/resources/urban-ee-essays.
