HERE IS THE LATEST REPORT I HAVE ON THE TOPIC OF ONTARIO HEALTH CARE.

____________________________
THE FORD GOVERNMENT IN ONTARIO IS FACING INTENSE CRITICISM FOR ACCELERATING THE PRIVATIZATION OF HEALTH SERVICES

With critics arguing the 2025 budget and policies are starving the public system, contributing to staff shortages, and leading to record-long emergency room waits.

While the government promotes private, for-profit clinics to reduce surgery backlogs, unions and opposition parties warn this is creating an "American-style" system that undermines public care.

Key issues regarding the Ford government and Ontario healthcare include:

Privatization Concerns: The Ontario Nurses' Association (ONA) and other groups argue that millions in funding are being directed to for-profit clinics rather than public hospitals, which they label a "fatal threat" to public health care.

Staffing Shortages & Burnout: Hospitals are facing acute shortages of nurses and staff, with critics alleging the government has not done enough to retain workers.
Primary Care Crisis: Approximately 3.3 million Ontarians lack a regular primary care provider, according to October 2025 estimates, leaving many with poor access to timely services.
Emergency Room Closures: Due to staff shortages and funding issues, hospitals have faced unprecedented, chaotic emergency room wait times and closures.

Funding Disputes: The Ontario Liberal Party and NDP claim the government is underfunding hospitals, which are among the lowest funded per capita in Canada, while holding back contingency funds.

The government asserts these changes are necessary to clear surgical backlogs and improve efficiency, but opponents argue the shift is exacerbating the crisis.

SO THIS IS WHERE THE MONEY FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS GOING,

(February 9, 2024, which involved:
$3.1 billion over three years in federal funding for Ontario to improve health care, increase access to doctors, and reduce wait times.
This was part of a larger 10-year, $8.4-billion agreement in principle.)

I suppose it's a good morning if you're a penguin; it's 10 F with an expected balmy 18 F and more snow on the way. I shoveled my Green Space twice, about 6 inches of snow each time, for a total of 12 inches yesterday. And I swept up at least 4 more inches this morning, and there's still light snow falling. It's very still and quiet out there, not even a breeze. Nothing except for the distant sound of a ship's engines at idle, probably at the nearest anchorage to us, Port Weller.

Four to six inches of snow, I can handle OK with my little red snow shovel, just not more. I wouldn't want to try to shovel more than six inches of snow with a small snow shovel, let alone a foot, even though my Green Space isn't that big. It's on one of those older buildings with large balconies, with metal railings sectioned off by metal panels. I like it, it's my perch looking out at the trees, it's my personal Tree House.

Multiperspectivity

Multiperspectivity: Often used in historical or narrative contexts to describe the representation of multiple, differing views of a single event.

The perception of the same events and occurrences perceived differently from one another

The phenomenon where the same event is perceived differently by different individuals is rooted in the fact that human perception is not a direct recording of reality (like a camera), but a subjective, constructive interpretation of sensory information. People filter experiences through their unique past experiences, emotions, cognitive biases, and expectations.

No matter how good our view of tiny details is, we, the observers, looking at the same object, will all see a slightly different picture. The outline of the object observed is only its containment. Looking inside, at first, all we see is a complicated maze because the details within are arranged so that we can only store so much in memory. We share knowledge, try out ideas, and all that stuff. If only we could universally code the details.

Such information could be acted upon by anyone at any time instead of remaining on the shelf, waiting for another set of eyes to examine it. That kind of research could be more like a job for something mechanical, like a camera and a microscope, which would be more accurate than the scrutiny of the human eye, naked or aided. Perhaps this is where applying AI would speed up the retrieval of information.

Border czar is heading to Minnesota after second fatal shooting of a US citizen amid immigration enforcement crackdown

Where Things Stand

• Border czar to Minnesota: President Donald Trump said he is sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight following the fatal shooting of ICU nurse Alex Pretti in an encounter Saturday with federal agents. Some DHS officials welcomed Homan’s dispatch, which suggests the potential sidelining of top Border Patrol official Gregory Bovino.

• Few details back claims: Federal officials have declined to provide critical details substantiating their claim an agent shot Pretti in self-defense. Lawmakers, including some Republicans, are calling for an investigation. Read CNN’s fact check of the Trump administration’s claims, and watch analysis of videos from several angles.

• In court today: A judge is hearing arguments on whether to temporarily halt the immigration crackdown in Minnesota. Separately, a federal court hearing is set for today after a judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking federal agencies from destroying or altering evidence related to Pretti’s killing...

My thoughts: It began back in the Sixties. The 1960s saw the emergence of various neo-Nazi movements and related political activities:

Neo-Nazi Groups in the U.S.

In the United States, George Lincoln Rockwell founded the American Nazi Party in 1959. In the 1960s, Rockwell and his party were active, promoting a hateful ideology...

Directed by the Heritage Foundation, the 2025 Presidential Transition Project (or Project 2025) rests on "four pillars": a policy guide, a "conservative LinkedIn", a "Presidential Administration Academy", and a "playbook". The policy guide was published in April 2024 as a volume of the Mandate for Leadership series, titled The Conservative Promise. Edited by Paul Dans and Steven Groves, the more than 900-page volume features 30 chapters written by 40 primary authors.

NASA is about to send people to the moon — in a spacecraft not everyone thinks is safe to fly

When four astronauts begin a historic trip around the moon as soon as February 6, they’ll climb aboard NASA’s 16.5-foot-wide Orion spacecraft with the understanding that it has a known flaw — one that has some experts urging the space agency not to fly the mission with humans on board. But NASA remains confident it has a handle on the problem and the vehicle can bring the crew home safely.

The issue relates to a special coating applied to the bottom part of the spacecraft, called the heat shield. It’s a crucial piece of hardware designed to protect the astronauts from extreme temperatures as they’re descending back to Earth during the final stretch of their moon-bound mission called Artemis II...

ICE nodding to far-right extremists in recruitment posts, experts say

U.S. immigration enforcement agency memes look familiar to far-right groups

At first glance, there may not appear to be anything unusual about the social media posts that are part of the ongoing recruitment drive by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The posts, which encourage Americans to join ICE, use the same aggressively patriotic imagery that’s become a hallmark of the Trump administration’s online communications.

But to observers of the far-right, and to members of the far-right themselves, there is something else that is recognizable in the language of the posts.

UPDATE: WHAT IS HAPPENING TO O.H.C., Ontario Health Care System?

Why is our health care still anemic even after the BILLIONS of dollars infusion

- My Google Search -

What happened to the $30 billion the Trudeau government gave the ontario gov for health care? If we have all that money coming in, why are we still short of doctors and closing clinics and small hospitals?

In February 2024 Canada-Ontario Agreement to Work Together to Improve Health Care for Canadian

Based on recent reports and budget documents, the federal government did not provide a single $30 billion lump sum, but rather entered into long-term, multi-year bilateral agreements (part of a broader $200 billion plan) intended for specific health priorities, including tackling staffing shortages and expanding primary care.

Despite these investments, Ontario is still experiencing shortages and closures due to a combination of high population growth, rapid inflation, and, according to a 2025 Financial Accountability Office (FAO) report, a provincial spending plan that falls significantly short of what is needed to maintain existing service levels.

Here is a breakdown of what has happened to the funding and why shortages persist:

Where Did the Money Go?:

Targeted Bilateral Agreements:The 2023–24 to 2025–26 agreement included $2.5 billion in annual funding (totaling $7.5 billion over 3 years) specifically for expanding family health services, supporting health workers, reducing backlogs, and upgrading digital tools.

Hospital Operating Funds: The province announced a 4% increase in total base hospital funding for the 2024–25 and 2025–26 fiscal years, including $965 million in 2024–25 to help manage surgical backlogs and emergency department pressures.

Primary Care Expansion: The 2024–25 budget allocated $546 million over three years to expand team-based primary care, aiming to connect 600,000 people to care.

Bill 124 Retroactive Pay: A significant portion of recent spending was used for retroactive wage payments to healthcare workers following the court ruling that Bill 124 (which capped wage increases at 1%) was unconstitutional.

Why Are Shortages and Closures Still Happening?

Funding Below Necessary Levels: The FAO reported that for 2025–26, the provincial budget is $3.4 billion below the amount needed to maintain existing service levels, a shortfall expected to grow to $9.6 billion by 2027–28.

Unprecedented Population Growth: Ontario’s population is growing faster than the healthcare system can expand, increasing demand for doctors and hospital beds.

High Inflation: Inflation has reduced the purchasing power of the money being invested, making it harder to hire staff, pay for equipment, and maintain, according to reports.

Staffing Shortages: Despite investments, there is still a shortage of nurses and doctors, with the FAO projecting a potential decrease in provincially funded nurses by 2027-28 if spending trends continue.

Hospital Budget Deficits: Many Ontario hospitals are in deficit, forced to use operating funds for capital equipment and reducing services, according to the Ontario Hospital Association.

Summary of Future Outlook

The 2025 Ontario budget projects health sector spending to grow at a much slower rate (0.7% average annually) than in previous years. While the government is investing in long-term infrastructure (like the $56 billion 10-year plan), experts warn that current operating funds are not keeping up with the immediate, high demand.

CMON MAN! THIS IS PEOPLE'S HEALTH! REMEMBER YA BUNCH OF MONEY MONGERING GREEDY MONEYBAGS,

Sick people can't work, they can't find a doctor or clinic to get medicine, then they CROAK! Simple as that. Then you wonder why there's a shortage of workers to run your factories. Remeber Covid 19? 👅👅👅 Sometimes I wonder if those in charge have a brain. I know they don't have a heart. I am beginning to think we are surrounded by idiots, dunces, airheads,s and bloodsuckers devising ways to see how much of your blood they can suck from you without getting caught by the flatfoot.

BREAKING NEWS:

Arizona AG suggests that under state law, residents may gun down masked ICE agents if they feel threatened.

Arizona's Attorney General Kris Mayes has wildly suggested that residents can open fire on masked ICE agents if they feel their life is in danger, citing the state's self-defense laws. But the Democrat's jaw-dropping comments have sparked outrage from critics who fear her words could incite violence against federal officers.

I do not agree with guns and shootouts, but once it comes to self-defence and survival, I can only suggest being ready for action at any time, and always being stocked up with supplies at home, in case of a siege, or being blacked out, or stormed out. PREPLAN and discuss the plans thoroughly with family. Then just be alert and ready to use those survival skills, whether in war, nature, amid climate change-driven freak calamities and destruction, or any man-made disaster.

During a sit-down with 12 News anchor Brahm Resnik, Mayes warned that Arizona's "Stand Your Ground" law, which allows citizens to use deadly force if they believe they're in imminent danger, could become a "recipe for disaster" if protesters clash with immigration officers. She said, "It's kind of a recipe for disaster because you have these masked federal officers with very little identification, sometimes no identification, wearing plain clothes and masks," calling ICE "very poorly trained."

Mayes's comments have been met with a fierce backlash, with critics accusing her of giving residents a "license" to shoot federal agents. A flabbergasted Resnik repeatedly challenged Mayes, cautioning that her remarks could be interpreted as encouraging violence. However, the state's top prosecutor shot back, insisting she was merely stating a "fact" and not inciting violence. It comes after an ICE agent made a chilling 3-word order before shooting a woman five times...

Europe’s ‘new reality’: The week that transatlantic ties came undone*

Brussels

—

It took Donald Trump six days to build a new world. On the seventh, his erstwhile allies in Europe could have been forgiven for hoping that he would rest. Since he threatened tariffs to seize Greenland last Saturday, Trump’s taboo-shattering behavior has left the West in no doubt that the norms of the old world order have been swept aside – “a rupture, not a transition,” in the stark words of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.

In its place: a more brutal, more lawless arena, where the loudest and strongest wins and a rock of the old world – the seemingly unbreakable transatlantic trust – is no more...

U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to impose a 100 per cent tariff on all Canadian goods entering the United States if Canada "makes a deal with China" — a forceful message that comes days after Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, widely viewed as pushback on U.S. actions.

Trump did not specifiy what a "deal" means in his social media post. Last week, Canada reached an agreement with China to allow 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into the market at a lowered tariff rate of 6.1 per cent in exchange for China lowering tariffs on Canadian canola...

From Alberta to the Atlantic provinces, Canada faces a wind-chilled deep freeze this weekend

Huge swath of country under cold warnings, with wind chill making it feel like —55 C in some areas

"Cold" might be a bit of an understatement when it comes to what much of Canada will be facing this weekend — unless you’re in balmy southwest British Columbia, where cherry blossoms are blooming early in some Metro Vancouver neighbourhoods.

Unfortunately, for the rest of us, cold weather warnings have been issued from Prince Edward Island all the way west to eastern Alberta — and it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
