Health Coalition reactions show disappointment over Throne Speech

#Thronespeech promises "Action on our collective health and well-being," but where is action on health care crisis? #Pharmacare? #LTC? Exhausted health care workers and everyone in Canada need federal leadership for a stronger public health care system #cdnpoli

Canada’s unions were listening closely to the #ThroneSpeech & welcome the govt’s commitments to make life more affordable with investments in housing & child care. Need to hear more soon about #EI reform & implementing #pharmacare. #canlab #cdnpoli #SFT https://t.co/3cetCG7Byp

#ThroneSpeech: Nurses are pleased to hear that the government intends to strengthen our health system and improve health data, but we are disappointed they have failed to recognize – and commit to fixing – Canada’s worsening nursing shortage. #cdnpoli https://t.co/c3mHRM8PZn

We can’t afford for the federal government to take a back seat with something as all-important as our public health care system.
