Ontario funds its public hospitals at the lowest rate in Canada.
Every service that has been cut from our public hospitals has been privatized. It’s not a coincidence. It is the plan.
It siphons funding and staff out of our local public hospitals, forcing them to close services.
It costs more. Private clinics charge OHIP and they charge patients thousands of dollars in user fees on top, even though such fees are illegal.
Privatization enriches corporations at the expense of the health and well being of regular Ontarians
Instead of privatizing, Ontario should match the funding other provinces give and improve our hospital services under public ownership and control.
