Friends of CHN is an ad hoc group whose objective is to focus attention on
the closure and its impact, and to try to turn this decision around. We
have created a petition addressed to Prime Minister, Stephen Harper and
Minister of Health, Tony Clement with the following message:

We the undersigned support the Canadian Health Network. We demand that the
funding cut required of the Public Health Agency of Canada be rescinded,
that full, stable funding for the Canadian Health Network be restored
immediately, and that this valuable Canadian health information resource
continue to be developed to become the best of its kind in the world.

Please act today to preserve the Canadian Health Network. Sign this
petition www.thepetitionsite.com/1/saveCHN and add your voice to the many
who are defending non-commercial, publicly funded health information for
all Canadians. Send a letter (or make use of a sample letter we have
provided) to your MP, the Minister of Health, and the Prime Minister.
