What Brought Us Here, Won’t Take Us There: The Rewiring of Canadian Healthcare
Dr. Alika Lafontaine, BSc | MD | FRCPC, Associate Clinical Professor, Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine, University of Alberta
Named Maclean’s top Healthcare Innovator of 2023, Dr. Alika Lafontaine has been at the epicentre of healthcare system change for almost two decades. He is the first Indigenous physician and the youngest doctor to lead the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) in its 156-year history, and the first Indigenous physician to be listed on The Medical Post’s 50 Most Powerful Doctors. As an experienced health leader, Lafontaine speaks eloquently and passionately on the politics of healthcare, implementing and scaling equity, effective advocacy, and redesigning health systems.
