Gotta pay for those...

Taxpayer funded sex-change operations somehow...
About 120 jobs will be cut at hospitals in Ajax and Scarborough as part of a plan to bring the Rouge Valley Health System back into the black.

Rouge Valley notified the Canadian Union of Public Employees Thursday that it has identified 71 clerical, maintenance, housekeeping and registered practical nursing positions – 48 full-time and 23 part-time – for elimination as the hospital struggles to balance a deficit blamed on years of mismanagement and ignoring budgets.

The Ontario Nurses' Association (ONA) was notified that 40 full-time and seven part-time registered nursing jobs are to be cut.
And hey, Dalton... nice work on screwin' over those... totally unworthy autistic kids.
A court ruling ordering the Ontario government to pay for an expensive autism treatment for children over age six will be appealed, the province said Monday.

"Every time a court says we require that you spend money in this way, they don't tell us where we're supposed to get the money,'' Premier Dalton McGuinty told reporters on Monday.

The Ontario government is creating a $25 million fund to help aboriginal communities hire lawyers and other advisers to "level the playing field" in treaty and business negotiations with Ottawa, the province and resource firms.
