   Ford has had almost two years to correct the situation, and all that bag of   
   hot air has done is make it worse.  When he actually does something positive   
   to correct that, then brag about how good a job he's doing verses what the   
   Liberals did.     
      
   By the way, before you get all hot and bothered under the collar like   
   conservatives like to do, let me tell you about my personal experience with   
   Ontario's "broken" health care system, and this happened while the Liberals   
   were still in power (February,    
   2018).  My wife was hit with a very dangerous infection that developed in a   
   wound in her leg and ended up being pumped through her system and wound up   
   causing two abscesses within her brain.  She was unconscious when I came home   
   and found her.  The    
   paramedics had her to the hospital within forty-minutes of calling.  She was   
   diagnosed within ninety-minutes, and operated on within twenty-four hours.    
   The care she received was exemplary!  For four weeks, the hospital staff, both   
   the Doctors and Nurses,   
     looked after her with the utmost level of professionalism.  I will say this,   
   the Doctor who operated on her did not pull and punches, nor did he sugar-coat   
   her situation.  It was THE most dangerous condition someone could ever   
   experience, and despite    
   the operation being a success, there was no guarantee for a total recovery.    
   Unfortunately, due to the nature of her illness, it did return, and again   
   unfortunately, she finally succumbed to her illness on St. Patrick's day,   
   2018.  Having seen the    
   healthcare system in action, I have nothing but praise for the system.   
      
   The problem I see is that Ford wants the healthcare system to fail to appease   
   his buddies who want us to have a "for-profit" system so they can become   
   overnight multi-millionaires.
