@AlexMunter It is a historic and important time when Hospitals, Children's Treatment Centres (CTCs) & Children's Mental Health have planned together. This is a critical investment. Let's right size the system for Ontario's kids and their families. #MakeKidsCount#onpoli#Budget2023#EKO
If children are waiting longer for surgery, diagnostic services, rehabilitation, mental health services than adults then shouldn’t we explore the virtue of a DISproportionate response? Let’s urge government to OVERinvest in kids. #Budget2023#OntarioBudget
“First of all, I just want to thank the academy for not being mortally offended by a film with the words women and talking, put so close together like that," Sarah Polley said while accepting the Academy Award for adapted screenplay for “Women Talking.” https://t.co/wi5n1EMZUD
Make kids Count. This is an urgent investment for Children in Ontario and crucial for Durham's children and families. It is well past time to right size the system for kids.
#MakeKidsCount! Ontario children’s hospitals & health-care orgs ask @ONgov for $371.5 million to support pediatric care—funds are desperately needed to tackle surgical, clinical and diagnostic waitlists. Learn more: https://t.co/KGyy7hlwfs
