"...universal high quality health care on the basis of need, not ability to pay, is a defining national value. Canadians overwhelmingly support it. Less understood are the economic benefits Canada enjoys as a result." @JimboStanford #cdnpoli @MarkJCarney centreforfuturework.ca/2025/06/17/the…
We are one of the richest countries in the world and there is zero to be gained by not resourcing ERs to do their job. I cannot understand why Canada just lets ERs wallow in misery. Patients say they love staff, they see them working hard and they have no idea how we can do it.

Trump says Canada should adopt U.S.-style health care, where big insurance and pharma dominate, medical debt bankrupts families, and thousands go without care. That’s not the future we want. On April 28th, vote to protect public health care. #VoteHealthCare #Cdnpoli #Elxn45

If the leaders’ debate is to have any relevance or credibility, it must reflect the priorities of the public. Health care is at the top of that list. A national debate that ignores health care, ignores patients facing long waitlists & HCWs burning out. Enough is enough! #cdnpoli
