  1. The problem we have is that the corrupt poLIEticians are making decisions in areas where they don’t have any experience…I agree with the doctor speaking specifically about the problem and how to go about fixing it…how about the government LISTEN for a change???

    1. Corrupt? I don’t think Trudeau had anything to do with this.

      Doctors are experts in their specific domain, but that would not include administration or budgeting.

  2. Private surgeries were deemed illegal by the Supreme court 6 months before then onset of this . Parallel systems were working just fine.

  3. No mention of rural shortages of family care practitioners. This announcement is purely urban centric. There is a shortage and the health of Ontario residents in rural areas continues to be at-risk!
