The Doug Ford government changed OHIP covered eye exams for seniors from 12 months to 18 months. My readers broke last week. My prescription is valid for a year but I have to wait 18 months to get retested.

Why the heck do so many seniors vote Conservative?

Every word rings true. Thank you Dr. Giroux. It does indeed seem that Doug Ford wants family physicians to drown so they can bring in privatized two tier healthcare to enrich their corporate friends.

And to add insult to injury Doug Ford’s government thought it was okay for a grocery empire to stranglehold leasing opportunities for family doctors. It’s almost like this government is trying to end access to family medicine.

Because the whole world isn't watching... #CeasefireNOW

Apparently former diplomat Darryl Mesheau loved to talk about the news. He never imagined he’d become the news. He died in the ER waiting for attention. He’d been dead for 40 minutes before anyone noticed. Blaine Higgs Mark Holland Dominic LeBlanc cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

The principles in the Canada Health Act are good ones, but as written it isn’t enough to produce provincial health care systems that provide accessible, comprehensive, universal health care. Definitely time for either an update or an entirely new law.

In a recent interview with Justin Ling (Has Left), Justin Trudeau once again repeats his 'no consensus' claim for why he broke his electoral reform promise.

Sounds like consensus to us!

A colleague crunched numbers that demonstrate between 2009 to 2024, family Dr net income has declined 34%. When you factor in that costs of clinics exceed inflation, net income has likely crashed by over 50% in the past 15 years. This is why you can’t find a family Dr. #Ontario

alan drummond A scathing indictment of our healthcare system when it is easier to get MAiD than a mattress that relieves bed sores.

Appalling and not acceptable!

We're posting this again because it's 2-minutes of an opposition NDP stating more facts than the entire Ford MPP roster combined - since 2018

'We've always thought everyone can get doctor care. But the reality is everyone can't.' — former minister of health Jane Philpott (@queensuhealth) speaks with Steve Paikin tonight about her book 'Health for All: A Doctor’s Prescription for a Healthier Canada' | Producer Preeti Bhuyan

For Profit LTC homes should've been shut down after covid. When the military has to come in and save patients but leaves with PSTD. It's past alarming. Seniors deserve better then this..

Honestly, every candidate for every party in Canada should be required to have too secret clearance before their name is added to the ballot.

Stop electing unsecured people to high office.

Vet them all, weed out the risks before 2025 election.

With a truly connected system, health information can seamlessly flow, leading to better care coordination and more informed patients. Infoway's Abhi Kalra discusses the value of a connected care system and how one solution can play an important role.

Can we measure #kindness ? I say yes as a #patient , it’s in the person who holds my hand before going under in surgery that if not done, would impact me going back again. That’s measurement. Small acts of kindness have great impact that can be measured. #Quality2024
