“I don't think we should call it a crisis. It's a catastrophe. Not enough nurses, not enough other hospital workers, not enough doctors,” Shirley Roebuck with the Ontario Health Coalition in Windsor today. windsor.ctvnews.ca/healthcare-cri…



“It speaks to a larger problem around corporatization of healthcare, where the healthcare professional has dual loyalties, the loyalty to the corporation and their business, and the loyalty to the patient, which should always be paramount.”#SLont #0nHealth cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Ford is not stopping. He is now accelerating his hospital privatization. This summer, Ford has announced 57 new private clinics that will take more than 100,000 diagnostic tests out of local public hospitals- along with funding and staffing.

We cannot let two-tier medicare and the charging of patients thousands of dollars for surgeries & diagnostic tests to become normalized. We are on the cusp of it now. If we don't fight back, we are going to lose Public Medicare.

At stake is our single tier Public Medicare & the services and funding in our local public hospitals. Don't let Ford destroy them.

A private clinic illegally charged Maureen nearly $7,000 for cataract surgery. She had to borrow money from her bank to pay for her operation. Read about our formal complaint filed on behalf of 50 patients who were charged at private clinics 👇 thestar.com/news/canada/ca… #onpoli

"provincial fiscal austerity destabilizes hospitals just as population growth and aging put more pressure on hospital staffing, which exacerbates hallway medicine and the long wait times patients face at emergency departments or for scheduled surgeries." bsky.app/profile/alongh…
