Singh issued the call at a press conference with Ontario Nurses’ Association President Cathryn Hoy on Thursday. His message to the federal government comes as several emergency rooms across the country have announced temporary closures and reduced services due to lack of staffing, while nurses leave the industry in droves.
Management of health-care systems and delivery of care is largely provincial and territorial jurisdiction. Hoy and the heads of various nursing unions say while it’s important to recruit new workers, the problem is retaining them, especially because of poor working conditions, in some cases caused by provincial policies.
“Your paycheck should never determine whether you have the right to care, or to be quite blunt, whether you have the right to live or die,” she also said. Meanwhile a new study by The Registered Practical Nurses Association of Ontario states the staffing shortages are causing patient care to be “critically compromised.”
Nurses in Ontario especially have been speaking out against the resounding negative impacts of the province’s Bill 124, which caps their annual salary increases at 1 per cent.
Is he now trying to show Canadians that he’s not really a Liberal? They must think an election is on the way. Too late, you’ve shown your true Colours.
Wasn't it you who advocated that all unvaxxed health care workers be fired? You're such a lying hypocrite
I am sure the original title of this article ended with... 'while cradling his balls.'
theJagmeetSingh takes second place for being the biggest hypocrite in Canada. First place goes to his boyfriend JustinTrudeau who is actively undermining Cdns personal and national sovereignty. Both living lives of luxury as citizens deal with inflation. We are under attack.
Rank hypocrite Singh by his own Sikh community. Singh sold out for the filthy lucre and personal gain. This makes him worse or just as bad as Trudeau. Singh has no credibility. … a total useless entity right from the beginning.
Trudeau is off surfing again. remember, the budget will balance itself by 2018 and Justin doesn't think about monetary issues.
theJagmeetSingh don’t bother the GOAT 🐐 JustinTrudeau - greatest leader in 🇨🇦 history. He is relaxing in Costa Rica 🇨🇷. He deserves a break from politics. fordnation and JohnTory are handling Ontario & Toronto. WE THE NORTH
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
I am really getting tired of this! This is a provincial problem!
Well Jagmeet that deal you made to keep JT in power you should have the power to force him to make changes or did you get short end of the stick lol
Has his pension locked in yet?
Then stop supporting Trudeau / Singh
Is he CO-PM? Do something buddy
That's rich from the deputy PM of Canada.
No bailouts! Remove Prov's from health, education, seniors, child care, etc! Can's need nationalization of public programs not dependent on different elected parties. Where all public workers are treated equally! All Can's get equal servicing. Throw out the piecemeal approach!
Maybe call for emergency measures. Talking points for sound bites does not help.
What role can he play in arriving at a solution,other than only observing and commenting
This is who Jag supports the NDP are now Liberals.
So one member of the Liberal party is calling on another? I mean they are in cahoots now right?
SelloutSingh could get rid of TrudeauMustGo anytime rather than whining from the sidelines.
this is the 🤡 that is responsible for propping up the other🤡
I know….. tax the rich…not him though
Time to take jagmeet to the train station along with Justin Castro.
Hire back the healthy healthcare workers that lost their jobs!
The PROVINCES are responsible for Healthcare! 🙄
The NDP and Liberals are one, so Jagmeet's words are meaningless.
Jagmeets words are meaningless and are only for public fodder. Nothing but a clown and yet supported by CTV.
Not a Federal government issue... literally.
Wag the dog
I can't wait until Pierre Poilievre turns off this shit show.
You and Jagmeet know that isn't how our system works. The federal government isn't in charge of healthcare. But if he's weighing in on it, why not hire back the experienced unvaxed staff? WDGPublicHealth we know the vax doesn't work. GuelphGeneral needs the staff back.
Since each province rules its own health services, what does Singh suggest? Not the first time that he doesn't mean any sense! I am wondering what he is at now...
Hire back those health care workers who got fired for refusing the big pharma jab.
The guy propping up the Trudeau liberals? Got it.
theJagmeetSingh tries to blow and suck at the same time. Dude you cannot prop up the dictator Trudeau and pretend to call him out at the same time......pick a lane.
He brave now that trudeau is in Costa Rica next week he back him up to keep in power all he has to do is call a non confidence vote any trigger an election
Too late Jaghead, you chose to be a puppet and prop up the narcissistic egomaniacal Trudeau. You sold out your party, you’re no longer relevant
🤦♂️🤡
My god, please people, someone knock some sense into this guy. How Obtuse can a guy be?
Did he call collect?
He's on vacation, dude. jeez.
Please remind Trudeau that he can't just dress up in a surgical cap and gown and start doing surgery on people.
Then the NDP should call a motion of no confidence and try to bring down the government but instead Singh complains and keeps supporting them while doing nothing.
Singh trying to remain relevant.
Between Trudeau campaigning from one end of the country to the other this month. The PCs on the verge of electing a new leader. Now Singh is turning on Trudeau . It feels like a no confidence vote and a election are in our near future
The federal government is willing to assist provinces just as long as they apply the funding provided TO healthcare. Since billions of dollars cannot be accounted for, it simply makes sense that any future funding comes with strings attached. Mr. Singh bloody well knows this.
Jagmeet the Traitor ended all credibility when he betrayed his constituents!
Holy hell he is the liberal party cheerleader he can just say hey ima call you an election so do this and Justin be like nah you want your pension so we good I’ll just keep screwing over Canadians cause , pension…
Tax Free OT for nurses & doctors
healthcare needs to be national. this province led crap is literally unaliving thousands of us
Does this guy not realize Canadians see him as a Liberal puppet? By his own efforts? It’s just cringe.
Jagmeet is just a little misguided and in need of assistance, I guess he doesn't have Trudeau's phone number yet. 🤔
theJagmeetSingh is a joke , he lost any credibility when he signed the deal with the devil.
WOW STAFFING SHORTAGES IN GOVERNMENT. .. IS HE OUT HIS MIND THINK THING ON HIS HEAD WOUND LITTLE TOO TIGHT.
Maybe all the hospital staff you fired because they didn’t want to be part of an experiment. Now justified.
Jagmeat went to the same drama school as Trudeau!!
Jagmeet can go take a hike!
Jag is a disgrace in every which way. It's difficult to say who, he or Trudeau, is the dominant partner in this unnatural relationship. Jag lost his 'voice' when he signed the marriage papers. Who'n hell is listening to anything he has to squeal about re politics ?
Don’t worry about health care…dofo just unloaded the problem onto the nurses. Gave them 2 weeks to come up with a plan he can take credit for.
Public embarrassment
Trudeau is far too busy on holiday in Costa Rica to pretend to care about our health care crisis.
It’s PRIME MINISTER TRUDEAU. Or PM Trudeau. You would think you would know that since you are a “news” outlet.
The only bone I’ll throw is that Justin’s federal vaccine/C19 mandates and offer of $$ to provinces for their vaxpass program did inform the shitty treatment and firing of provincial HCWs…so yeah, HC is provincial but the current social climate in 🇨🇦 is all on Justin.
Wondering what took so long for thealarma to ring. It has only been 15 years.
This guy is absolutely shameless
No one cares what Doormat has to say
This is BC where Jug has a seat ….
The solution is not as easy as it is saying 'fix it dude'. Belive the working conditions of Nurses have to be reviewed; what can be replaced or automated it shall be made so. What can be addressed via robotics then make it so. This where 5G tech can really be good to society.
Frauds can not plant trees or fix the passports yet they plan on fixing the environment. Haha 😂 😄 🤣 😆
Sell out Jagmeet. Go bow down to your Grand Supreme Leader Trudeau.
Jagmeet the Traitor ended all credibility when he betrayed his constituents!
It starts with firing all the unvaccinated.... oh wait, never mind that makes it worse.
Singh teamed up with JustinTrudeau I personally like NDP a bit more than liberals but Singh held hands and teamed up with liberals rather than being true to voters. Singh doesn't care. Few more years and he gets his pension. He sacrificed voters for his financial net.
Jagmeat, the very definition of a DO-NOTHING, KNOW-NOTHING talker and spin artist. He holds a mighty stick which he could use to support his BS claims and complaints, yet chooses to do squat and wait for his gold-plated MP pension to kick in.
Tell theJagmeetSingh to wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which one fills up first.... he's a sell out.
theJagmeetSingh keeps mixing up division of powers.
The Fed Gov't has already given the provinces billions, which they decided not to use. After they use that money, if they need more, then we can talk about it.
Lmao fire the unvaccinated health care workers because slime ball politicians know what’s best for their health 🤡
Well then, did you ask him why he makes these stupid comments? If not, why not? Stop wasting our time by repeating his bullsh-t.
He is as Nieves as liberal followers. Dresses good but not to bright about people
Sleazy con artists.
Only YOU can stop him
He forgot about jurisdictions again.
They both advocated for thousands of healthy doctors and nurses to be either sent home indefinitely or fired. Both of these WEF tyrants need to be investigated and charged with treason. NewWorldOrder
He and Trudeau are a pair of evils
Surely he knows that healthcare is a provincial responsibility, not federal?
Coming from the guy that 100% supports Justin Trudeau.
I thought he would have JT on speed dial as they are aligned with one another.
Justin is on Holidays leave him alone 😎
What a goof get lost bud your a none issue
Trudeau...
Where did all the health care workers go to? What is causing the shortages? Is it poorly planned vacation time or did that many just quit this year?
Jagmeet also has a coalition with the Liberals. So the two are equal in whatever is passed or not passed.
Could someone spell out to Mr. Singh healthcare is a provincial responsibility?
The exact same thing is happening in the UK. There is much more to this story.
It’s all an act🤮
He needs to call the Premier's but he knows that .
Jagmeet do something instead of whining! Stop Trudeau
Someone tell this man that's a provincial matter.
CTV is Jigger's mouthpiece. When he decides to open the cut under his nose, they are all over him like Oprah on a baked ham.
How? By zapping fordnation with a cattle prod?
larimerstones Common Jagmeet. Your his buddy. Just give him a call and he will get it done! Wasn't that the condition of your marriage vows?
Its good and All but the Provence is responsible for handing that money out. And fordnation in Ontario has cut hospital Funding by 2.2 billion. So tell me is the FedGov going to tale that over forever. Because that is the only way the Liberals can Help keep them open!
Maggie was getting after it in the 60’s. Just now realizing JT has a brother. Can be the only possible explanation!!
Just call an election Jackie.
Jags is hilarious. Trying to be relevant.
He is irrelevant now. Time for change.
I'm convinced Jagmeet is trolling us. No way he can be this self-unaware to both criticize Trudeau AND prop him up.
Freaking grow a pair Jagmeet and do more than call for action. The balls, so to speak, are in your court.
When Our Fathers of Confederation created government they designated that health care would be provincial. If the PM has to get involved in this that is the depiction of a failed provincial gov and we should have an election again. DougFordmustresign
blah blah blah... now get back on your knees for Trudeau
How are ER closures a Federal responsibility? Why does it always come down to 'more money'? Provincial gov'ts have known for 2+ yrs this was a problem that would only get worse. What have they done to prepare? Just as every Cons Premier was lambasting the PM for not being/2
theJagmeetSingh BE BETTER!!!
Can he make fordnation pay ON nurses a fair wage? That’s a start. I don’t think Dougie needs the feds to take that step…..
Why don't you call on the provinces
Isn’t healthcare a provincial jurisdiction?
CTV you are apart of the misleading/misinfo problem. You damn well know who is responsible for the mess but you refuse to call it out. Pathetic news org.
It’s PROVINCIAL. In Ontario it’s this guy you should be talking to. That’s if you can find him. fordnation
Stop propping up his government them.
Whatever.
Gheez theJagmeetSingh I respected you until you followed the crowd . How about we blame the Premier
Trudeau already handed out tons of money to the premiers. If they can’t do their jobs then they should resign and let someone else get the job done. fordnation JustinTrudeau NeverVoteConservative IStandWithTrudeau DougFordIsUnfitForOffice
He can’t. Healthcare is a provincial responsibility and Singh knows it.
Hmmmm I wonder what they discussed? Their blunder? Or the ways they can blame the unvaccinated?
Example two - again, what has happened to all the $s? STRINGS ATTACHED. Premiers cannot be trusted with our money.
Out of touch, out of ideas
I don't know what's more fake. WWE wrestling or this guy scolding Trudeau...
Jagmeet should talk to Ford. He abolished license plate fees. Money that could have been earmarked for health care.
This is just one example of additional supports provided. What have the provinces done with all the $?
Awww, didn't Lloyd take Harry with him to Costa Rica!!!
Hi in an ambulance under cover and see what is going on- everylittle job needs a person and so much red tapeit’s a disaster! Go look! It’s a patient nightmare! Of course it’s not your problem( you are NDP who favor unions) quit playing stupid!
Poor Jagmeet. He STILL doesn’t understand the difference between provincial and federal jurisdictions. I begin to wonder if he’s learning impaired. Poor guy.
Jagmeet, don’t be like the conservatives! Provinces were given billions for healthcare and covid, where did it all go! To different projects? Like Ford, having billions to build a new Hwy but nothing for healthcare… he’s also talking about more beds, what for if there’s no staff
Designated shit posting.
Mr SINGH. You sold your yourself and your party to keep PM TRUDEAU in power. Now you you hear the nonsense of a possible election and y’all question the PM.
Unionshave somemerit but you and liberals have ruined our workers will go work- tell the truth instead of whining and saying we beedmore staff!
It’s the NDP unions that control the staff that are there already- it’s an abuse of the system because they can! No medical notes anymore- just stay home ,!work ethic for many is in the toilet(Not all) thank God!
Gonna have to wait, Jag. Justin stocked the Jet with booze and went on vacation again.
Who?
Fraudster
Ahhhhh but if only you were the opposition NDP. Instead of a liberal party member
You have no say in anything Canada does since your NDP government is allowing Trudeau to screw over pretty much every Canadian !
That is a provincial problem, not a federal one… Ford, for example, still has 7Billion $ from Ottawa he hasn’t spent.
He talks pretty tough when the potato is in Costa Rica…..
So Jag still thinks he’s in provincial politics and can influence the health care system?
theJagmeetSingh are you new!!! Ask fordnation!! 🤬🤬🤬
Hey theJagmeetSingh did you read the article on how the Cons and PP are eating your lunch and taking your NDP followers? It's not too late to end the coalition and start wearing an orange tie again instead of a red one. Start working for the people, and not Trudeau.
This is a good call but I think it would have more weight with the threat of a non confidence vote attached to it.
We know it’s the issue of each province. Feds gave billions of Covid relief meant to address staffing issues for HCW. The premiers squandered it. All across the country. C’mon theJagmeetSingh we know this
Why does Canada need so many politicians if the Prime Minister is supposed to do everything?
First of all provincial, unless ppl are suggesting the PM now has veto power or provinces… also… Where are the BILLIONS that fordnation has “misplaced”?!?!? Pretty sure that would help to solve a lot of problems… That he created
Quick! We need a 14-year-old social studies student to explain to the NDP how the 3 levels of government work!
Healthcare is Provincial theJagmeetSingh and beside that, you are his partner. Sit down.
Uh, Jagmeet, not sure if you got the memo but JT’s on vacay! 🏖
Jagmeet can fix all of this by declaring a non-confidence vote. Otherwise, he's all talk
Jagmeet Singh is a sellout
he can’t do anything
Stupid hypocrite
Idiot
Psst... Jagmeet. It's a provincial issue.
