"It's gone beyond frustration into absolute rage. I've been treated better by the people of Mexico than I have been by my own country," Pazzano told the Star from the intensive care unit of Hospiten Cancun in Mexico. "I am, in all honesty, disgusted to be called a Canadian citizen right now."Of course... the Toronto Red Star is more than happy to publish any derogatory reference towards the federal Conservative government, even though this one actually falls squarely on the McGuinty Liberals...
The couple was initially told that hospitals here are full, says Pazzano, but that claim was negated by Ontario Health Minister David Caplan.Well, David... perhaps this woman could have found an ICU bed in Toronto if it weren't for Dalton McGuinty's billion dollars in P2P hospital construction cost over-runs.
"There is ICU capacity," he told reporters, noting that the health system here should "be able to provide the care that Ontarians expect."
Funny how that works.
