Nickel Belt's M-P-P Calls Health Care Cuts in the North a Crisis

By Stew Kernan

Nickel Belt’s M-P-P wants the provincial government to put an end to health care cuts in Northern Ontario.

France Gelinas was up during Question Period at Queen’s Park this week running down the long list of cuts to hospitals in the Northeast.

She calls it a silent crisis.

Gelinas says in the end it’s patient care that suffers and at the very least, hospital funding should keep up with inflation and population growth.
