Mass protest against privatization - DWHN contingent

The Ontario government created the healthcare crisis by holding down wages; creating part-time employment where workers have fewer benefits and no paid sick days; and understaffing the entire system from hospitals to home care and from clinics to long-term care. Premier Ford has dramatically under-funded and under-spent on the healthcare budget. By passing legislation like Bill 124, which deliberately suppresses wages and limits free collective bargaining, this government has knowingly jeopardized the health and safety of workers and patients. Precarious work makes hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities less safe.
