MP Mathyssen Questions Liberals on Unplanned ER Shutdowns

Mr. Speaker, it is unacceptable that one in five emergency rooms in Ontario had unplanned shutdowns this year. The Prime Minister's praise of Doug Ford's innovation in health care resulted in 2024 being the worst year for emergency room closures in Ontario. The Liberals have given Ford billions of dollars in no-strings-attached health care funds, only for more closures and uncertainty. Ontarians deserve better.

Will the Prime Minister take responsibility for funding Doug Ford's privatization scheme or will he continue to leave Ontarians waiting?
