WHO WE ARE
When it comes to health were always looking for ways to push for better. Its why we were founded in the first 1957 our founder pharmacist William Wilkinson witnessed a mother sacrifice her health by forgoing her own medicine to pay for her sick daughters prescription.

We arent just a health and benefits company. Were the only non-profit social enterprise that brings worlds of coverage and care together all in one place.
Were noble challengers purposefully building a better way and we need the best people to help us create a more holistic approach that takes care of the mind and body.

Our mission is to create better health for all Canadians and we know that starts with our employees.
