  1. Doug doesn’t care. His priority for money was already shown in the pandemic response. He’s here for business not health care. And too many Ontario voters didn’t care either and voted him back into office. It’s sad.

    1. LOL did you miss how much worse Stalin Del Duca and Andrea Hogwash were? Those two were COVID paranoid hysterics.

    2. He only graduated from high school , in this country it does not matter any more what you know but who you know and family background as part of strong nepotism involved!

  2. Amazing points, I’ve been saying this all along. The rest of the world needs nurses too, and new Canadians certainly don’t need the huge costs of living with a 30 year decline in nurses wages. Repealing the bill is the least that can be done, there shouldn’t be political interference between healthy negotiation, especially when nurses have hardly met inflation a handful of times over the decades. We don’t need a new school, we need incentives into family medicine who are disrespected, overworked, and underpaid (debts) in their field. There is no room for a private system, the public system already has a huge executive wage burden, no wellness initiatives for staff, and wage suppression. There is a huge wave of citizens coming that need the public system that they paid into for years. OHIP or credit card doesn’t matter, higher cost to the taxpayer is all that private will result in.

  3. A perfect example of private sector health care success is the internationally acclaimed Shouldice Hospital that has specialized in hernia surgeries in Toronto for over 70 years.

    1. About 12 years ago or so s Major Hospital in Toronto Central set up a Specialized Hernia Center with full operating rooms and Surgeons especially trained with very high skills in repairing hernias with great success. Private hospitals and medical centers may sound nice, although just who pays for them? We all do

  4. Dougie or cheesecake boy has single handedly destroyed the health care system. And what is she doing sitting in front of a computer, wearing a mask, keep the show going.

  5. Many many years ago that was a crisis too. Even like an emergency . But all Health Care is not working well. About the doctors they don”t know what they do. They got the diploma but this is not enough . Or coming from another country with low education.

    1. Big assumption about lower education from other countries. They are generally more educated and more capable while handling pressure. Canada hardly has 35M ppl. a drop in the bucket v/s countries with larger population. And the system is under load? Shameful.

    1. Listen to the words and never mind the appearance, she is clearly at work and in my hospital masking is firmly in place to stay. The buildings are full of the compromised and at the very least we show respect for those who could be compromised.

  6. health care crisis? you mean transfer of money? oh of course anything for our sick patients. $cience in 2022

  7. Show your face if you want to make public statements like this.
    Also if you want to be taken seriously don’t have some unhinged person speaking for your profession.

  8. This is the beginning of America style 3 tier health care system. The rich will get the best health care and go to the front of the line. Everyone else will be secondary and low level care. Call your Provincial Rep or email, write them a letter.

    1. Pretty much every country that provides taxpayer funded, universal health care that actually works (which absolutely excludes all of Canada) has the private sector involved to a significant degree. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid we might actually get the health care we’re paying for if the private sector gets involved – because we certainly are not getting it with the public sector running it.

  9. Thanks for wearing the mask “doctor”🙄; I wouldn’t want to risk catching whatever it is she suffers from 🤣😂🤣
