Episode Details

Manitoba’s speech-language pathology crisis is leaving thousands waiting years for vital care—impacting kids, stroke survivors, and autistic individuals alike. With no local graduate program, the province is hemorrhaging specialists, forcing existing therapists to serve over 100 patients each and crippling early intervention. The fallout? Strained families, mental health tolls, and a broken system where undiagnosed language disorders fuel delinquency and dropout rates. Saskatchewan’s new program won’t help Manitobans—despite a ready master’s proposal at the University of Manitoba, stalled by political inaction. Every year without it drives more talent away. Elected officials must act: local training means local solutions, and your MLA needs to hear you.
