  1. Finally…. I really hope that someone actually does something….dealt with this for 13 years while my dad was in CHSLD in Montreal Quebec.
    I made sure to go there everyday for 13 years.
    This was the pr8ce I paid to ensure my dad was cared for.
    The system is horrible

  2. All Canadian politicians, mayors, and the provincial/ federal government are complicit in this. All Canadians are NOT complicit when LTC homes were privatized and many outbreaks occurred in the privately owned facilities.

    1. We agree. There have been several level of government that have been paid to be accountable and to steer the direction of these organizations.

    2. Yup we cannot let them deflect blame on anyone else than who is responsible
      They need to answer to human rights tribunals for every family affected until they comply

  3. I’m not complicit in anything there missy! I keep my elders home and looked after!

    1. My 93 year old mother lives in her own home,I spent 2 years renovating and it was worth every minute.When she broke her hip I was at the hospital for 12 hours a day for 3 weeks and I was shocked and appalled at how few visitors showed up to see their parents. As for responsibility, skip the investigation and go straight to indictments.

  4. Yes! Ban for-profit care homes! They had their chance. They should be booted out of the province after they’ve been sued.

    1. The vast majority of long term care homes are operated by Rivera, which is owned entirely by the government. While they don’t run the homes directly they do appoint the board.

  5. Yes specially when I told it online 1 week before. In a dream prophecy and tag it with all government agency and proven many prophecies. Way to go lazies
    Do I have to mentionned I was also in 5 mins drive from the one who smash the guest mtl news as the first devastating private nursery?

    1. What an indelicate and callous comment. See, if your stingy daddy wore a condom, you wouldn’t be posting absolutely hateful comments on YouTube today.

    1. Almost none. The majority are owned by Rivera, the second largest long term care provider in North America. Rivera is owned by the government. The government appoints the boards but does not direct the company.

  6. All levels of Canadian Government are complicit
    There fixed it for ya Dr Deflection
    Nice try lady give me a F ing break eff off

  7. Trudeau sat quietly on this report until an insider leaked it. Liberals in damage control again!!!! He also delayed closing foreign flights for 2 months despite another millitary report.

    1. The rest are owned by Rivera. Rivera is Owned 100% by the government. The government appoints the board and gets the lions share of the profits. While I have no love of China this is not their fault. Rivera is the second largest long term care provider in North America

  8. Remember that Jane Philpott is the M.D and member of parliament run out of Ottawa by Trudeau and his Liberal gang . She took an ethical stance ovrr the SNC-Lavalin affair and paid the price.
