Union of Public Employees (CUPE) is warning that Thunder Bay hospitals could see more cuts under Progressive Conservative programs.<\/p>\n<p>The party has pledged to end &#8216;hallway medicine,&#8217; or overcapacity, but the PC pledges to cut taxes and government spending are at odds with that promise, according to a report titled &#8220;Hallway Medicine: It Can Be Fixed&#8221; by the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions, the hospital division of CUPE.<\/p>\n<p>Thunder Bay hospitals stand to lose up to 71 beds if the cuts are made, said council president\u00a0Michael Hurley.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There would be just under 200 people who would also have to be eliminated in order to make those targets balance,&#8221; Hurley said. &#8220;So, we wanted to draw attention to the fact that these two demands are actually in competition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"placeholder\">\n<div class=\"placeholderImage aspect-56\"><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

to raise awareness about the possible impact of proposed provincial spending cuts.\u00a0(CBC News)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The PCs promised during the election campaign to cut spending across the board by four per cent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you apply a four per cent spending reduction to the hospital budgets, and when you add in the impacts of some of the other promises the government has made &#8230; the newly-elected government would have to cut by the third year of its mandate something in the neighbourhood of $13 billion,&#8221; Hurley added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you apply that in healthcare &#8230; it means that, in this community, you&#8217;d have a loss of somewhere up to 71 beds.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The council is working with the Ontario Health Coalition to raise awareness about the issue, Hurley said.<\/p>\n<p>The way to end hallway medicine, he said in a statement, is to increase investments in health care short term to ensure that it meets the needs of the
