Health Canada’s Healthy Environments and Consumer Safety Branch (HECSB) is seeking to
engage suppliers that will assist in promoting their environmental programs to Canadians. These
programs include, but are not limited to, the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI), Radon and the
Chemicals Management Plan.
The objective of this requirement is to establish a list of suppliers to provide Health Canada
with a broad range of services that address the following objectives:
-foster awareness amongst Canadians and key groups about environmental health issues, with a focus on people at risk who have existing health conditions that leave more vulnerable to adverse health effects (asthmatics, the elderly, those with cardio vascular disease, etc.);
- inform Candians about and encourage preventitive actions or behavior changes to reduce risks associated with environmental health issues and ultimately improve health and wellness;
-increase the number of Canadians who consult Health Canada tools and program information in the areas of environmental health.
