Join the Ontario Health Coalition for the Toronto rally this Saturday. The Conservative government is planning to:
- Cut public health funding and close 25 out of 35 local Public Health Units;
- “Restructure” 59 local ambulance services, and close 12 of 22 local dispatch centres;
- Cut public hospital funding, even though we have the fewest hospital beds available per person of any province and we are in a crisis of overcrowding;
- Cut dollars in long-term care homes, leaving the burden on municipalities to raise funds through tax hikes or service cuts for the elderly
Let’s stand together and insist the government expand, not cut, our local health services.
