How is this not #Privatization of healthcare?
@smithc902 To do that, it will charge a monthly subscription fee — $27.50 for adults and $9.50 for children — to people who would also pay for their appointments, such as a $69 fee for an initial assessment. globalnews.ca/news/9510247/p…

So NOW @MThompsonPC tells us?
Generally speaking, she says people who use private health care to access the system need to be sure of the credentials and qualifications of those practising. #BluenoseHealth #MichelleThompson #NSHealth

@HeidiPCTV Former emergency department nurse and department manager @ConradMacNeil says Canadians need to understand the true price of private health care. #FixHealthcare #GoLikeHell #KarenOldfield atlantic.ctvnews.ca/private-clinic…
@writenrun @TimHoustonNS @CH_ABeswick @NS_Justice @nspc I recently heard @CTVSteveMurphy tell @TVeinotteShow that Tim Houston is a lot more like Stephen McNeil than most people realize.
In other words, they're both "my way or the highway" kinda' guys. #WhiteMalePrivilege

@writenrun @TimHoustonNS @CH_ABeswick @NS_Justice @nspc @CTVSteveMurphy @TVeinotteShow @skimber The new Tim Houston has morphed into the old Stephen McNeill: arrogant, angry, self-righteous. (paywalled) #nspoli #nspc halifaxexaminer.ca/commentary/hou…
@writenrun @TimHoustonNS @CH_ABeswick @NS_Justice @nspc @CTVSteveMurphy @TVeinotteShow @skimber Last week, @MLABarbAdams announced plans to build 600 new #LTC beds, doubling the number under development.
Good news, but… Is it playing politics to note that most of those beds will not open until 2025, the year the Tim Houston govt. is scheduled to seek a new mandate?

2) @MichaelTGorman Nova Scotia's DM of housing said Wed. that non-profit housing will have to be "dramatically" expanded to address the province's housing crunch.
(Thus far both Geoff MacLellan and Tim Houston only seem interested in ‘market’ solutions.)

3) One of the benefits of non-market housing is that the units remain affordable for the long term.
That's a key difference from many private developments that get govt. funding to include a handful of affordable units. #HRM @hfxgov @MikeSavageHFX @dubehalifax1 @HRMLovelace
