Is Ontario's public health care on a slippery slope?

Episode 722 Published 3 years, 1 month ago
Description

Canadians are passionate about their healthcare. Even when the system is in crisis, we're proud of having universal care, and we want it to work. So when Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced his government would move some surgeries into private clinics ... all hell broke loose.

So what exactly is happening in Ontario? How is it different from what's already happening in British Columbia and Quebec? What are critics concerned about and just how can we tell if this is a necessary move, or a step onto a slippery slope? Or both?

GUEST: Richard Southern, Queen's Park reporter, CityNews
