Like with health care, you're always looking for excuses for DoFo.
Is the goal to spend the most $$$ on healthcare per capita, or to have the best outcomes? My money's on the latter. But people like yourself, with Ford Derangement Syndrome (FDS) will always point to Ford and how every single one of his policies is a fail. Whether it's true or not.
"The same source that shows Ontario spends the least per capita of all provinces also shows that Ontario has the best outcomes on key metrics.
According to the Canadian Institute of Health for Health Information, the
average spent per resident when considering both public and private funding is $8,740. The highest province in the country is Newfoundland and Labrador at $10,333 while Ontario is dead last at $8,245.
What’s interesting is that on six treatments measured nationally,
Ontario is the leader across Canada in providing timely access to hip replacement and knee replacement surgeries. When it comes to providing timely access to radiation therapy, Ontario meets the mark 99% of the time just behind Manitoba at 100% but well ahead of Newfoundland, the big spender among the provinces which only meets the mark 57% of the time.
On hip fracture repair, Ontario is just ahead of the national average meeting the guidelines 83% of the time. For cataract surgery, the province is behind the national average meeting the timeliness guidelines just 65% of the time which is still well ahead of Newfoundland which meets the guideline just 43% of the time."
