You may have noticed that your provincial health coalition, health-care unions, community groups and friends of health care have been getting louder over the past few months. Actions and events, protests and rallies have been taking place across the country. In B.C., concern is mounting over the Dr. Day court case, in Alberta Friends of Medicare and allies performed an overnight sit-in at the Minister of Health's office, a massive door-to-door campaign is being launched in Ontario to stop the sale of hospital services to private clinics, in Nova Scotia home-care nurses were on strike just last week while the Minister of Health bashed the poor for not making healthier choices and blamed them for draining the system of its resources.
