Public Health Care System. That’s what we have in Canada. Publicly funded, established through federal legislation.
We need to talk about it. Why? We’re in big trouble. The system is collapsing. The system is failing citizens of this Country. Lack of access to care. Lack of availability and accessibility. And it’s not because of Covid. In no way is it because of the people who didn’t’ get covid vaccinated. You will see as I present the realities. It’s because of years and years of government failure, misspending, and LIES. I’ll outline what I have learned through researching the problem.
Firstly, some overview information.
Total health spending in Canada is expected to reach $308 billion in 2021, or $8,019 per Canadian. With that, each Provincial and territorial health insurance plan covers all medically necessary hospital and physician services on a prepaid basis. So, what are hospitals spending their money on? Here you go:
The main funding source comes from taxation. This means that we, as taxpayers, are funding the health care system. Which WOULD be okay if we were getting the service and care we deserve for those thousands we are spending each year. The average Canadian family, consisting of two adults and two children, earning about $127,000, will pay about $12,000 a year for public health care. I also read a National Post article that stated that an individual in the fifth decile of Canadian earners will pay approximately $5,789 in public health costs. Either way; we are paying for a service we can’t get access to, unless we are dying or it’s deemed an emergency.
I’ve heard from so many people about their disastrous public health care experiences. Waiting months and years for appointments and procedures. Having surgeries cancelled or postponed. Not even having a family doctor. Let’s talk about that ONE point for a minute.
The state of Family Doctors
The starting point of the system, in my opinion, is ensuring that all citizens have a family doctor. Do you know the state of trying to get a family doctor in Canada?
Nearly 4.8 million Canadians don’t have a regular doctor, with the highest rates reported in Quebec, Saskatchewan and British Columbia, according to figures from Statistics Canada.
So, what do you do if you don’t have a family Doctor that you can call and make an appointment with? Some provinces have walk in clinics, some do not (Quebec). You’ll likely have to make a choice; go to the emergency room and wait, go to a private clinic and pay out of pocket, or ignore the situation.
Let’s talk about those Hospitals. And this is where it gets juicy. The state of hospitals is really disastrous. And it’s in NO WAY because of Covid. Hospitals have been overrun for many many years. I remember being younger and I would hear conversations between my parents, or hear news reports of Hallway patients. Patients not even having a room, rather lined up in the hallways of hospitals. It stuck with me. I was young hearing this stuff. I couldn’t understand it. But I thought it would get better and go away. Sadly, it hasn’t.
Let’s look at some headlines
2014
In that same article, it stated:
“I know the nurses are exhausted,” says Fuller. “It is continuous – 24 hours a day.”
Dr. Doug Sider of Public Health Ontario, says that ERs are busy with the flu at many of the province’s hospitals. That’s due to a mismatch between the type of virus that was targeted in this year’s flu vaccines and the type that is spreading now, he says. It takes months to make and distribute influenza vaccines, and the virus can mutate in the interim. This year’s flu vaccine is thought to be only 50 to 60 percent effective. What’s worse, says Sider, is that this year’s strain is Influenza A (H3N2), which can cause, “more serious illness, more hospitalizations and more complications.”
Hmmm. Sounds pretty similar to the situation in 2021, doesn’t it? And approximately 90% of Canadians are vaccinated too. And vaccine free people are excluded from society. Discriminated against. Hate speech from the PM of Canada too. Let’s carry on.
2017
Dec 2017. Occupancy at some Ontario Hospitals has been as high as 140% this year. WOW. Governments have known about this for many years. It’s their failure to own
January 2018
Also, in this article it stated
“Influenza A is a little bit higher than it should be, but influenza B is off the charts higher,” ER Doctor Brett Belchetz told Global News, adding the increase is due in part to a low efficacy rate of the flu shot.
A number of doctors, nurses and administrators at hospitals across the GTA confirmed to Global News there has been a surge of patients on top of a system that is already operating at or over 100 percent capacity.
Interestingly enough, Brett Belchetz then became the CEO of getmaple, which I had an interesting interaction with him via twitter in 2021. I saw that he favorited a really harmful tweet towards vaccine free people and called him out on that. It became evident where he stood.
Moving on
January 25, 2018
Look at this. Postponing surgeries because of hospital overcrowding. Can you believe it. Yet in 2021 and 2022, all of a sudden Governments and now people are spewing hate and discrimination on the vaccine free people because we are clogging the hospitals? NO. It’s been happening for YEARS. And guess who is responsible? GOVERNMENT.
February 13, 2018
More surgeries postponed because of FLU IN THE ICU
So what’s really happening in Canada? Our healthcare system has been failing for many years. Combine that with an aging population, increase is autoimmune diseases and such, in addition to rapid increases of immigrations, the infrastructure is just not there to support everyone fairly. And all of a sudden in the past few months the government has started to twist the story and build propaganda campaigns to place blame on people who have not got covid vaccinated. If there is one thing that you walk away with after reading this, I hope you will stand strongly and confidently and know that unvaccinated people are not the problem here. It’s been the same story for many years of which I captured since 2014.
Let’s look at a few more numbers.
Hospital Beds
The most Populous province has the least amount of beds per 1000 people, in 2013-2014. Do you think anything has changed?
Not only has Ontario cut more hospital beds than any other province in Canada, we also now rank at the bottom of international data on hospital beds per population. Compared to 33 countries of the OECD, Ontario is third last in hospital beds per capita, followed only by Mexico and Turkey.
Hospital Funding
Hospital Capacity
ICU Capacity
The use of ICUs is increasing faster than overall hospital admissions. In 2013–2014, there were more than 230,800 adult ICU admissions in Canada, outside of Quebec. This number is up from the more than 206,800 adult ICU admissions in 2007–2008, and represents an increase of 12% over this period (versus 7% for overall hospital admissions).
Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving or life-supporting treatment delivered in ICUs. There are different mechanisms to provide mechanical ventilation: invasive ventilation, where a breathing tube is inserted into the trachea, or non-invasive ventilation through the use of a tight-fitting mask to the nose and mouth. Invasive ventilation is common in Canadian ICUs, with 33% of patients requiring invasive ventilation during their ICU stay. This is in line with rates reported in the U.S. of patients ventilated at any given time, ranging from 21% to 39%
An Ontario study predicted that based on use in 2006, the demand for invasive ventilation is forecast to increase by 57% by 2026, requiring an estimated 810 additional beds in Ontario alone.
The story. The propaganda. The narrative. We can all have different theories and beliefs as to WHY this is happening on a global scale. I understand not everyone is able or wants to believe this was all planned for a certain end game goal. But put that all to the side and focus on the Hospital and Healthcare system in Canada. In no way, in NO way, is the hospital situation the fault of covid vaccine free people. There is zero logic to that. The evidence and past studies are clear. It’s been a problem for many years. Influenza has been a concern for many years. It happens every year. It will continue to happen every year. The best thing we can all do today is unite with each other, put an end to the propaganda against fellow citizens and stand up against EVIL. Please join me
