  The Report is a comprehensive assessment of sexual and reproductive health issues in Canada, and was developed through input from federal provincial and territorial governments, and non government organizations. It represents a beginning of a national discussion on sexual and reproductive health and provides a basis for future policy, program planning and related decision-making, as well as collaborative action on issues around sexual and reproductive health by all parties involved in its development.
