The Department of National Health and Welfare (NHW), commonly known as Health and Welfare Canada, was a Canadian federal department established in 1944.
Its advisory body on welfare was the National Council of Welfare.[1] In June 1993, Prime Minister Kim Campbell split the department into two separate entities: Health Canada[2] and Human Resources and Labour Canada (later Human Resources Development Canada).[1]
