The Fat of the Nation

Whereas:

- The general state of physical fitness among Canadians is at an all-time now;
- Child diabetes resulting from malnutrition and deplorable eating habits is at an all-time high;
- Foods that are processed and highly saturated in fats constitute more and more of the typical Canadian's diet;

Les membres de l'Eparlement conviennent sur ce qui suit:

- que le gouvernement fédéral contribue beaucoup plus de fonds pour l'éducation et la promotion en matière de la santé (ex l'entraînement, l'alimentation, etc.)
- que les programmes d'intervention commencent dès la naissance
- que les étudiants universitaires soient obligatoirement inscrits dans des cours qui enseignent le bien-être physique (ex cours de musculation, formation en "cuisine pour les étudiants stressés", etc.)
- que les restaurants qui offrent des sélections "santé" soient recompensés d'une façon ou une autre ...

Comments:
Aye.

As someone who keeps in shape through regular fysical phitness, I agree wholeheartedly. University courses should be taught on treadmills... every little gerbil on the treadmill. That's how you learn to think on your feet.

What about hiking GST on crap food and reducing tax on eco-happy-good-for-your-bones food?
