We need our hospitals .private places go anywhere and it’s hard to get to places and do not factor in mental health issues.

This seems more like a petition that a referendum….
With more options for specific care some will leave the line ups and others will get faster care….
Hi CP. It is similar to a petition but with more engagement opportunities and more demands that a voter think about options. It also makes the point that residents were not asked about this important change in our health care system: in the last election the Ford conservative team said they would not privatize. The irony of for-profit clinics is that they take staff from public hospitals, so they increase wait times in the hospitals and wait times overall. A recent report out of Alberta, the most recent to show this phenomena, found that under their Alberta Surgery Initiative wait times generally went up. it is especially harmful when there is excess capacity in the public system and the government could be more efficient by simply funding the use of that space.
The location for the Metro Grocery Store on Taylor Kidd may be wrong – shouldn’t it say Bayridge, not Bayshore?
Thank you, corrected.
I went to 835 Princess St at about 10:30 this morning and there was no voting available! What’s up with that?
Hi Jim, Sorry we missed you. That voting stations was active on Friday and started on Saturday when one of the volunteers unexpectedly had to leave. we are sorry for any inconvenience
.
I found a vote online platform on the Ontario Health coalition website this morning so my relatives, friends and myself were able to vote today. This should have been available on the Kingston site so many more people could get their vote in too.
Hi Jim, the on line vote link is at the bottom of the page in large letters and has been through the whole campaign. I am glad you had a chance to vote. Thank you for taking the time.
