ER Closures: Ford’s Healthcare Failures, MPP wants the gov’t to do more for children with complex needs & What do we really know about UFO’s?
Listen now
Description
The Bill Kelly Podcast w/ Shiona Thompson: Over the past weekend alone, eight emergency rooms in Ontario were forced to temporarily close or reduce services because they don’t have the staff to run them. The closures have become so commonplace that this government had to issue a protocol for hospitals to follow when they are forced to close. It’s shameful and it’s inexcusable. The government shouldn’t need a protocol to patch the holes in a crumbling healthcare system. What our hospitals – and our healthcare workers – need is a government that sees the value in public healthcare. GUEST: Mike Schreiner, Leader of the Ontario Green Party and MPP for Guelph - NDP MPP Monique Taylor (Hamilton Mountain) met with parents to talk solutions that could help children who are aging (or have already aged) out of the pediatric care system. GUEST: Steffanie Bjorgan is Executive Director and Founder of Red Roof Retreat - In the coming weeks and months, the phrase “Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon”—the rebranding of the old, loaded term “UFO”—is going to enter the popular lexicon as Congress begins a series of unprecedented public hearings on the topic. GUEST: Chris Rutkowski, Ufologist and Science Writer
