There are 3 truths about Canadian healthcare that the public will acknowledge in the next two years:
1. Healthcare is collapsing across Canada because of decisions to underfund it over the past two decades.
For folks who say it’s unsustainable, we’ve been saying that for 30 years. Underfunding was not the solution to that problem.
The solution was (and still is!) making deliberate choices of what public healthcare is and isn’t (which we haven’t done either), linked to what we publicly fund and what we don’t.
We then have to regulate both of those markets effectively.

74% of Canadians say that health care in their province is in crisis. The CMA and its counterparts urge leaders to stabilize our #CDNhealth system for timely patient care and safe, well-resourced environments for health professionals. ctvnews.ca/politics/provi…View quoted post on X
