how sufficient numbers of citizens and their perseverance can lead to real

apartheid, and Tommy Douglas who established Medicare in Canada, this vision
adopts a particular form of social justice. Recently, I finished reading “A Healthy Society” by Ryan Meili, a Saskatchewan doctor, which provided a short
but well-rounded primer on this subject.
