Subject: [CLICK4HP] Effect of fiscal policies on overweight and obesity


Hi everyone,

I am looking for information on Canadian research exploring the
effectiveness of fiscal policies (i.e. taxation, etc.) on obesity and
overweight. Does anyone know of any Canadian researchers who are
currently working on this issue?

Thanks so much,

Sincerely,

Andrea Norquay
