Premier John Hamm
Hon. Minister of Health Angus MacIsaac
Halifax, NS.
Dear Premier and Hon. Minister:
Prior to the Premier's Conference on July 27, 28, 29 & 30 at Niagara-on-the-Lake, it is urgent for the Network to meet with you on the SUSTAINABILITY of our publicly delivered health care.
We strongly believe that our provincial government must make a public commitment that you are against privatization. A meeting to discuss this very important issue is imperative, especially since the results of the federal election. This is a time when provinces can actively see progress in long term stable funding for health care and you will need the support of our Network as well as other organizations.
We can make ourselves available anytime to meet your schedule, but meet we must. Please contact me to set a time and date. We anxiously await your admistrative assistant's call.
Thank you
Sincerely,
Debbie L. Kelly, Chairperson
Nova Scotia Citizens' Health Care Network
