The last health charter proposed in Canada provided the framework for the country's medicare system.
The final recommendations from Mr. Justice Emmett Hall's Royal Commission on Health Services in 1964 included a call for a “Health Charter for Canadians.” That charter, while not formally implemented, provided the skeleton for the Medicare Act of 1966, which in turn was the basis for the country's medicare system and for the Canada Health Act of 1984.
The Hall commission's charter called for “a comprehensive, universal Health Services Programme for the Canadian people that would include all health services, preventive, diagnostic, curative and rehabilitative that modern medical and other sciences can provide.” — CMAJ
