Premier Ford addresses health-care crisisPremier Ford has addressed the hospital staffing shortages and ER closures in Ontario. CTV's Katie Griffin reports. This has everything to do with the Ford gov’t. They are responsible for health care. As in, he spoke and said nothing. He hasn't even attempted to address the problem - indeed, his government has made things measurably worse. Medical care crisis and hes visiting an automotive plant. There's his priority. First time he's left the cottage since the election, and he's promoting filling his pockets instead of actually doing something to help Ontarians. 😑
