The Recent Past and Present
More than 4500 people died in Ontario's long-term care institutions during the pandemic and the Canadian military reported deplorable conditions in those facilities.  SSAO believes that the details in the military report should have led to criminal investigations, but the current Ontario government never took that action.

Since the military report, conditions in Ontario's long-term care institutions have continued to cause harm to residents, as documented by the government's own inspectors, yet the Ontario government continues not to revoke licenses of facilities with very troubled track records, or levy serious penalties against them or the companies that operate them.  

The SSAO Board believes that incidents and conditions documented in Ministry of Long Term Care Inspection Reports continue to rise to the level of failure to provide the necessaries of life and criminal negligence causing bodily harm or death, and merit police investigation.

This report details those conditions and calls on the responsible Ministers to finally take the necessary action, obtain Cabinet approval to approach the OPP with a request that facilities that continue to cause residents harm or are sufficiently negligent as to cause their deaths, be subject to criminal investigation.

This report was sent today to the Attorney General, the Solicitor General, the Minister of Long-Term Care and the Premier and their staff.  
Copies have also been sent to the Federal Attorney General and his staff.

ER doctors like me have our schedules set already until October. Announcing MD funding on June 1 for smaller hospitals is sloppy planning by Ontario's Ministry of Health. @SylviaJonesMPP @allisonjones_cp

The people’s referendum results are in! 🗳️ A massive pile of ballots were delivered to the government yesterday, as 400,000 & counting Ontarians voted on this critical issue with an overwhelming 99% of voters opposed to the privatization of Ontario’s public hospital services🧵���️

[Dr. Nancy Olivieri @DrNancyOlivieri]

This is a very tough read. 💔

"Everyone here is alive today, or knows someone who is, because of the doctors and nurses who have spent the past 27 years making this ED an anchor of the community."

@Fordnation at work, for the people.

@JILLSLASTWORD @fordnation @ONThealth @ONlongtermcare @PattyHajdu @CBC @CP24 @JustinTrudeau @PaulCalandra I wrote administrator of home 2 complaint emails with pics of neglect in Aprils 4 rushes to hospital. MOH was suppose to investigate. Never heard from them at all. Then I see her foot 6pm yesterday when I took boot and sock off. I felt like I got hit by a truck sick, disgusted.

In many situations, #MAID in Canada has made “dying with dignity” easier than “living with dignity.” Three health experts at @UofLethbridge share their questions about medically assisted death. https://t.co/iG1AYDWoD6 via @ConversationCA

Western Canada’s experience with for-profit surgery clinics: They worsen staff shortages, cost more and provide lower quality, by @a_longhurst @AmitAryaMD @drlesleybarron https://t.co/AhmmWnGCos via @IRPP @CaulfieldTim

[Dr. Nancy Olivieri @DrNancyOlivieri]

Increased deaths and poorer care aside...
The cost of #ForProfit Care is something @fordnation doesn’t often (that is, ever) explain. #Bill60
My grandfather could have explained it. He lived it.
One hospital admission in 1955.
$15,000 In 2022 dollars.

Yesterday it was someone else’s ER closed, today it is the Minden ER closing and tomorrow it might be your ER closing. A decent society attends to the injured and the ill. @Alan_S_Hale

[Dr. Nancy Olivieri @DrNancyOlivieri]

Yes, I was there, watching @fordnation and his henchman - the very definition of undeserved privilege.

Please vote in the @OntarioHealthC citizen referendum to save hospital services from privatization.

Can't vote in person?

We are STILL losing our dear seniors to covid in #LTC. You get that right, @PaulCalandra⁉️

You get that people are still dying on your watch in large part due to your stupid removal of safeguards⁉️

YOU GET THAT, RIGHT⁉️

(I’m SO so sorry for your loss @MikeHanafin 😢)

[Dr. Nancy Olivieri @DrNancyOlivieri]

ForProfit hospitals come with another price tag: poor care and higher rates of death.

Unsurprisingly, @fordnation are reluctant openly to state: "In private hospitals, more of you will die": https://t.co/C6O2HxL6gy

"It is very expensive to give bad medical care to poor people in a rich country": Paul Farmer

And #ForProfit care IS worse care.

But proposed amendments to #Bill60 to increase regulation and patient protection was *voted down* by @fordnation
