We start from the premise that Canada is facing the deepest crisis in recent memory. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission has acknowledged shocking details about the violence of Canadaâs near past. Deepening poverty and inequality are a scar on the countryâs present.And Canadaâs record on climate change is a crime against humanityâs future.echnological breakthroughs have brought this dream within reach. The latest research shows it is feasible for Canada to get 100% of its electricity from renewable resources within two decades; by 2050 we could have a 100% clean economy. We demand that this shift begin now.
What is brain health? The brain is a remarkably flexible organ. If multiple sclerosis (MS) disease activity damages tissue in one area, other areas can work harder to compensate.1,2 This extra capacity is known as âneurological reserveâ, or âbrain healthâ, and explains why disease activity may go undetected during the early phase oÂ­f MS.
Brain research has come out with a lot of interesting stuff during the past few years. One consistent finding is that our brains stay healthier (e.g. we are less likely to get Alzheimer's), if we use them more. Being a couch potato staring mindlessly at the tv every evening will literally make us more mindless.
