Health Care - Harry Lahotsky is one more example of why we need to change the government

In Today's Winnipeg Sun, Harry Lahotsky tells his personal experience with the NDP health care system. He concludes "It seems part of this government's strategy on getting people our of hospital hallways is to leave them on the street in pain."

In my experience, the number of problem stories, like Harry's, are increasing not decreasing. The really unfortunate aspect is that not only is Harry's story an example of poor health care, it is also an example of the reality that waiting is not only bad for people who are not well, it is bad for the costs of our health care system. All too often, problems fester and get worse if not diagnosed and treated promptly. It is one of the reasons we need to change this government. It is one of the reasons I moved into provincial politics to change things. Neither the Tories nor the NDP have been able to manage health care well.

Manitoba Liberals can do better.
