RT @Mo7mmd30: Don't forget Dr. Hussam Abu Safia.

If tariffs are really pressure applied to win access to protected markets, like health care, does anyone really have confidence in Doug Ford to defend Medicare from the US? His approach to health care in Ontario has been to favour privatization, even if more expensive and deadly.

RT @portagebaygirl1: @fordnation

How can we prioritize a $100+ billion tunnel over the $30 billion it would cost to clear the wait lists for surgeries and LTC, get patients off stretchers & into beds, staff up hospitals and LTC and provide adequate homecare?

RT @CP24: Ford’s lead over Crombie’s Liberals has shrunk since start of election campaign, new @niknanos survey shows

Premier Ford reiterates his promise to build a 50 kilometre tunnel under the 401 - a fantastically expensive project. Meanwhile, Ontario won't let Bracebridge, Minden and Thessalon keep their community hospitals? The kids are hungry and dad's brought home a case of beer.

200 people out to form a battle plan to save Thessalon hospital where every in-patient bed has now been closed. All of us have to fight to defend health services in the face of provincial real budget cuts. Let's hold the Ford government accountable.

Huge rally this afternoon for nurse to patient ratios. ONA's drive for safe staffing levels has the support of every health care union. Ratios, in place in BC and California, would save thousands of patients' lives every year.

$7.3 b in funding announcements in a few days, but not the $2 billion to get the 2,000 patients off stretchers and into hospital beds and the 250,000 on wait lists into surgeries. This government is vulnerable on health care. Let's talk about it.

Kicking off a 30 community tour on the health care crisis at Queen's Park today with hospital stretchers representing the 2000 in hallways waiting for beds, 2.5 million waiting for family doctors, 50,000 waiting for LTC and 250,000 waiting for surgeries in Ontario.

The OMA says 2 million will continue to be without doctors. Ms. Jones says they are wrong. This government won't factor in population growth and as a result we have shortages of hospital beds, LTC beds and doctors. And it's promises, as to end hallway medicine, are empty.
