Katherine Fierlbeck grinds her teeth everytime she hears someone say we need to take the politics out of health care.

HALIFAX, N.S. — Because every problem and challenge we see in the system today is because of political policy and choice. And as an electorate, we need to accept some of the responsibility. She is the Chair of the Political Science Department at Dalhousie University. And she has also spent a great deal of time researching and writing about the intersection of politics and health policy.
