Privatization of our
HealthCare system---- Right under our Nose
Our public Healthcare system
is lacking. Canadians have to be willing to stand strong to save it or be prepared to
watch it quickly fall to the private sector. That is all well and good if you can afford
to access it once the private hospitals take over. There has been little publicity around
the building of the East Coast Medicenter. If you have the available funds maybe you can
jump the que and get faster service. Knowing that, out here in the public system we are
now four operating room nurses shorter at
If you starve the public
sector of the Human resources needed to put out the requested service, obviously the
service can not be provided adequately. It has been known for years that the Healthcare
system has been in a human resources turmoil. Both the federal and provincial governments
of this country have to address this fundamental issue before Healthcare can be revamped
and become effective for all Canadians. Either we fix the system properly from the grass
roots or the system can not and will not work. If we as Canadian citizens choose to look
the other way and the private sector takes over, may we not complain when it takes our
life savings to actually save our lives.
