Day Care? Sorry. Can’t Commit.

 Day Care? Sorry. Can’t Commit.


On Aug.1, Doug Ford said he could not commit to providing nursing-home residents with 4 hours of day care. This was in response, (if one can call it that), to a report about the lack of staff in these homes, made worse by the pandemic. Already 5,900 patients in Ontario nursing homes have caught the virus and 1,844 have died. Ford also said he needs to take a closer look at the report. Considering his foremost consideration is the needs of capitalism, you bet he is reluctant to commit, especially since the additional cost will be $1.6 billion!
