The Human Cost of Privatizing Health Care
The push to privatize the healthcare system continues to affect Ontarians across this province. In this episode, the CUPE Co-hosts chat about how privatizing health has negative implications for the patient and the worker. The co-host also sits down with Unifor member Tiffany, who shares her story about fertility and her experience navigating the private healthcare system.
Brittany also says her goodbyes and signs off from CUPE Cast one last time.
Warning: The content discussed in this episode may be triggering for some - especially those who struggle with fertility.
