The Toronto Globe and Mail -- Canada's newspaper of record -- has been
notorious for NOT covering a single story on the social determinants of
health
over the past decade.  Instead, readers are provided with a daily pummeling
of stories about exercise, fruits and vegetables, and more recently,
obesity.
Its enough to make you stuff your face with chocolates!

Nevertheless, they have begun a ten part series that strikingly illustrates
how exclusion,
marginalization, poor employment and unemployment, inadequate housing and
crowding
threatens health.  Will the public -- or the Globe editors -- make the
connection?
