Ontario NDP Leader Andrea Horwath says it\u2019s time for the Liberal government to stop cutting hospital care and ensure that Ontario families can count on their health care system to be there when they need it. Horwath says hospital funding should be stable, predictable and, at a minimum, must keep pace with inflation and population growth.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u201cThe last thing people should have to worry about is their family\u2019s health care. Ontarians deserve health care they can count on, and that\u2019s what the NDP is determined to deliver,\u201d said Horwath. \u201cInstead of stability, people are watching as hundreds of nurses are fired, hospital beds are closed, and services are being cut across Ontario because this Liberal government is forcing hospitals to make decisions based on dollars and deficits, instead of what\u2019s best for patients.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
