Canada's healthcare workers - doctors, nurses, pharmacists, technicians, custodial staff - have been the backbone of the COVID-19 pandemic.
To recognize their outstanding work and sacrifices made, a Mississauga-based healthcare procurement organization has launched the #FacesofCanadianHealthcare art contest.
All Canadian artists - amateur or professional - can enter the contest by submitting a painting, drawing, photograph or computer rendering for their chance to win a cash prize, as well as the opportunity to direct a $25,000 donation to the publicly funded Canadian healthcare facility of their choice.
Guest: HealthPRO CEO, Renato Discenza.
