Hi GREN folks,

Below is an invitation from the folks at the Ontario Health Coalition and Get Concerned Stratford to join them on Tuesday for a protest outside the Provincial Finance Committee Standing Committee hearings that will be happening in Stratford that day.

Details are below.  This is an excellent chance to be able work together with other community groups to reach at least a dozen MPPs and send a strong message of concern about the recent actions of the provincial government.

Cheers,
Kevin.

> As the government travels to Stratford to hold Pre-Budget Hearings, concerned citizens from Stratford and area will gather to send a message to the Ford government regarding their underfunding and privatization of our public health care services.
> 
> Health care in Ontario is in the worst crisis we have ever seen with services from primary care to home care in total disarray. Millions have lost their family doctors. Hospitals are in deficit and, now even in the worst staffing crisis in our history, are actually cutting positions. Regionally, hospital staff were protesting cuts in Guelph just last week. Local emergency departments had a record number of closures last year, worse even than 2023 and 2022 when the unprecedented closures started. These closures have had a significant negative impact in the region around Stratford, and to the west and north of the town.
