WHAT WE DO

CNHC is as complex in its networking as it is simple in its aim and mission.

We make use of a variety of resources, pulling experts, established activists and the citizenship as a whole to make our program work. We ask for action from not only the experienced natural health veterans, but newly inspired concerned citizens. We campaign taking a multi-pronged approach to make sure we're working to unite and empower Canadians from all areas and walks of life. We're not about idle protesting, blogging or ranting. Everything we do revolves around taking action to produce noticeable and lasting change.

WALKING THE TALK

Here are some of the ways we accomplish that via our campaigning strategy:

CAMPAIGNING FOR FREEDOM

We started by gathering and uniting concerned groups and individuals and by launching several Bill C-51 protests, including Canada's largest Stop Bill C-51 rally in Toronto. We also helped the Consumer Health Organization of Canada put on an expert panel on Bill C-51, moderated by Helke Ferrie & featuring Shawn Buckley, Dr. Shiv Chopra and Mike McBane.

CAMPAIGNING TO PROTECT OUR INDUSTRY

We have been busily working behind the scenes, with virtually all of the independent natural health activist groups to bridge together varied concepts & approaches as well as to work with them to prepare for the upcoming challenges we will inevitably be facing in the natural health community in the near future. One of our latest projects has been the development of the new Charter of Health Freedom website. We have dedicated ourselves to the forwarding of the Charter as opposed to 3rd category initiatives because of its uncompromising nature to uphold the rights we enjoy as Canadian citizens.

CAMPAIGNING TO CREATE AWARENESS
"The first step in fighting injustice is to make it visible."—Gandhi.

We have also decided to extend the reach of our work beyond exclusively political and social issues in natural health and open up our campaigns to support the awareness of the healing power of natural health in the body mind and spirit. We will maintain three campaigns at all times to give the industry, advocates and public a choice to participate in the one that they are most passionate about. We have learned that one longer term initiative focused on an underlying issue, coupled with short, sharp campaigns allows us to shift to timely causes quickly and efficiently.

CAMPAIGNING FOR CHANGE

We need support at the grassroots level as well an industry level. They say that many hands make light work. In these times we invite you to get involved and bring your skills to the table. Action is the hardest part. If there is no action, all we're doing is building castles in the sky. CNHC feels that nothing is impossible and we pride ourselves on being a solution-focused organization. It is possible to create this change through raising awareness of the challenges and physically acting on our desires to create change. Our aspirations may never be attained if we do not set the stage for a natural health community that functions without constant fear of persecution.
