Health Care Rally Today At Queens Park

A rally is planned Queens Park today to voice opposition to the Ontario governments aggressive plan to strip local community hospitals of services and cut or privatize them.

The Chatham-Kent Health Coalition is sending a bus to Toronto picking up Sarnia Lambton residents on the way.

Chair Shirley Roebuck says they want elected officials to know that people across Ontario want to keep their community hospital and local health care services.
