Fight Back with Libby Znaimer

Libby Znaimer is joined by Ontario Deputy Premier and Minister of Health Christine Elliott

The Ford government has just announced more money for community and home care. This time it is an infusion of $155 million dollars for this year.

This comes less than a week after a report from the Ontario Hospital Association that wait times in hallways have gotten worse, not better since the PC’s took power.

As a matter of fact, wait times have reached a record high in June. The wait time to get into a hospital bed from emergency has grown to 16.3 hours.

One of Ford’s key election promises was that he would eliminate hallway medicine within a year.

Police are warning people about the latest scam. It’s another phone scam and the elderly are particularly vulnerable. This one seems to be targeting senior citizens in the Roncesvalles Avenue area.

Lately, that scam took the form of someone impersonating a police officer in Toronto in order to steal from an elderly couple.

Libby Znaimer is joined by Kim Wright, Principal of Wright Strategies, John Capobianco, Senior Vice President & Senior Partner at FleishmanHillard HighRoad, and Charles Bird, Managing Principal of Earnscliffe Strategy Group in Toronto.

The latest polls echo what the other surveys have been saying and that is that the Liberals have regained the ground they lost and are gaining in Ontario and Quebec. The Conservatives are a bit behind, they are gaining in BC, but their vote is less efficient. The first debate will be on Thursday, but Justin Trudeau is not participating. Does that matter?

Libby and guests discuss that and more.
