Mr. Speaker, that is great rhetoric from the health minister, but he knows perfectly well that for every dollar cut this government will return 50 cents, if that, and home care has been completely forgotten. What that means is that hospitals are backed right up to the emergency rooms.
A Toronto emergency room nurse put it bluntly, “Christmas is going to be a disaster for people needing health care”.
Is the minister content to preside over more hallway medicine or will he deliver on home care as promised?
