We must make sure there’s enough health care for all

someone is expecting comWhen pany, what they do? They make sure there are enough beds for everyone, enough food and anything they need.

Our health-care system has been stretched to the limits for many, many years — even as far back as the 1990s. We were already experiencing long wait times and substandard care, even before Justin Trudeau threw open the doors to Canada without making sure there were enough homes, beds, food and health-care supports already in place to handle the increased number of people.

By throwing the doors open without the supports, he forces the stressed situation on the healthcare system. Either increase the necessary staffing and supports for the health-care system, or close the doors until such time as they are put in place. We, as longtime Canadians, are aging on a massive scale. We shouldn’t be experiencing the stresses we are.
