Ontario Conservatives: Another round of funding cuts will sure fix it this time!

At least all the provincial premiers are on the same page for once… sadly, that page is to do nothing.

Surely if we allow them to privatize parts that should fix the funding issue, hopefully people only need healthcare they can afford!

Oh noooo after constant budget cuts and capping health care worker wages at far below minimum wage our health care system isn't working! Time to privatize I guess

If they privatize even HCW couldn't afford healthcare

Manitoba and Alberta conservatives quickly follow.
