“We are being forced to choose who will receive care, and who will not. We go home haunted by the harm we may have caused,” nurses at Queen’s Park are calling on the Ford government to implement mandatory minimum 1:4 staffing ratios, which they say will save thousands of lives.

Of course. Imagine reporting this as if it is surprising and no one knew. 😂 A highway. A hospital. A police force. A new money laundry at Ontario Place. Wasaga Beach. What Cortelluccis want, Ford will provide. Because he owes them. globalnews.ca/news/11330234/…

Every additional patient added to a nurse’s workload is associated with a 7% increase in patient deaths. This happens to most nurses, every shift, in an Ontario hospital. The cost of Ontario’s lowest level of nurse staffing: the preventable deaths of thousands of patients.

At news conference yesterday, Doug Ford called on Mark Carney to lower taxes&get rid of the HST.  “We’re taxed to death, simple as that”says he Or,just maybe,we’re OK with paying our taxes when the money goes to things we’ve asked for like HC,supports for kids,our elders🤷‍♀️

American physicians are welcome in Canada. I bill 1 insurer. My patients can access women’s reproductive health including abortion. The equivalent of my HHS Secretary is not an antivaxxer. I live in a stable democracy with rule of law. Consider Canada to live and practice

Just in today’s clinic, I helped prescribe access to three air conditioners. Here’s why: a $500 air conditioner can help prevent a $15,000 hospital admission for heart failure or heat stroke in these heat waves.

False. No such wage subsidy exists. This misleading narrative is to feed xenophobia. The government is investing to improve access for internationally educated nurses to address the chronic nursing shortages. You should be happy to have immigrant nurses working in toxic systems.

Why are U.S. companies being awarded public contracts to build Ontario hospitals? The trade war has been going on for months. The government said they would prioritize Ontario businesses, but at the same time has given a $140m deal to a U.S. firm.

CIHI reports 9 million overtime hours worked by nurses in Ontario hospitals last year. 16,000 vacancies can't be filled. Nurse-patient ratios can bring back the 16,500 nurses who are registered & not practicing. They just need to believe they can provide good, safe patient care.

The Ford government touted Therme as a ‘world-class’ partner for Ontario Place. In Europe, ‘significant’ concerns have emerged over finances, records obtained by the Star show. From the front page of today's paper, by Ana Pereira and me: thestar.com/news/investiga…
