The document in question was published in 1990. Health Canada -- or Health and
Welfare Canada as it was then known --  funded three (? I think) community-based
projects focused on the social-environmental factors related to heart disease. One
was in Edmonton and one was in the industrial region of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. I
can't remember where the other one was. The projects were operational in the early
'90s. I'm not sure if they are still around, or exactly what became of them.

Nikki McDermott, the manager of OPHA's heart health resource centre, was involved
with the Cape Breton project. She's currently in the UK, but will be returning to
OPHA at the end of May. Perhaps she can share additional information with
Click4HPer's when she returns.

Hope this helps,

Brian Hyndman.
