After reading NDP candidate Monika Dutt's article in the Cape Breton Post ("Vote for a healthier Cape Breton"), I started to brainstorm a little about how we could combine principles of gamification with fun Cape Breton stuff like the "Chase the Ace" - to encourage people to achieve a healthier body weight in a fun way.

You can click the link above to go to a slideshow with the basics of the idea.

Just for discussion purposes. The details and legalities would have to be scrutinized much more closely if something like this program was attempted.

• What do you think of the idea?
• Do you have any other fun ways to gamify better health outcomes in Cape Breton?
