Health policies in Quebec: when the right hand ignores what the left hand does

Abstract

This article analyzes the coherence of public health and transportation policy in Quebec. It concludes that, while the formulation of these policies is coherent, their implementation is incongruent. Health policy in Quebec aims, among other things, at lowering deaths and diseases caused by air pollution; and transportation policy in Quebec aims at lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Yet the implementation of these policies does not make it possible to reach this target because of thickness of hierarchies, that is, the number of hierarchies (Hupe, 2010). Otherwise said, decentralization in the two departments leads to wrong interpretation of joint priorities.
