National Rabies Awareness Day

Dr. Brendan Hanley, MP, Yukon, introduced an important Private Members’ Bill to support the development of a National Rabies Awareness Day and a national strategy for combating rabies.

Rabies poses a particular risk in Canada’s northern communities, as they often do not have access to critical services that are available in other parts of the country.

A coordinated approach to combating rabies across Canada will ensure all animals coast-to-coast-to-coast have access to proper care and vaccinations, supporting the health of pets, farm animals, and Canadians alike.
