François Legault’s government is banking on a new provincial agency to fix its battered health-care system, and it’s called Santé Québec.
The creation of Santé Québec is the foundational piece of Bill 15, which Health Minister Christian Dubé tabled at the National Assembly on Wednesday.
If it becomes law, Santé Québec will oversee all activities related to the public health-care system, including providing services and facilitating access.
The province’s Health Ministry would provide broad guidelines, Dubé said, but Santé Québec would be the organization in charge.
Santé Québec would also help organize elements of the private sector.

Teaching Braille in PE – PHE America
Each school year, I teach a unit called “Abilities Awareness”. Making students aware of each other’s different abilities helps us become better citizens and leads to a more positive and inclusive school climate. This awareness leads to empathy and a deeper understanding of our peers’ individual learning needs resulting in a sense of belonging, community, and value in our school community. This unit is also an opportunity to address misconceptions surrounding different disabilities. In the words of Winston Churchill, “Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common. Celebrate it every day.”

Ford’s health-care risk cuts the lives of society’s most vulnerable
A 6-year-old child ends up in the emergency room with meningitis, following days of concern by her parents about her fever and rash. A pregnant woman avoids seeing a health provider until she goes into labour, all the while worrying that she is risking her life and that of her baby.

The life of a doctor isn’t easy these days. Many are saddled with massive student loan debt, work long hours and continue to deal with the trauma of treating patients during the pandemic.
Doctors, nurses and other front-line health-care workers bore the brunt of the pandemic. Many contracted covid-19, and some even had to intubate their colleagues. Others developed long covid, and some suffered such intense emotional pain that they died by suicide. Doctors who want to seek mental health support are fearful of retribution from state licensing boards.
National Doctors’ Day is celebrated every…
Cruel health care cut targets the most vulnerable
By the mid-1990s, it was common for analysts to lament a rising culture of meanness. Public anger and government cutbacks seemed aimed at punishing those already struggling. Worse, the mood took hold at the very time the wealth and income gaps between the rich and the rest was expanding.
There’s a strong taste of that mood in the decision by Doug Ford’s government to wind down a pandemic program, established in March 2020, to give uninsured Ontario patients access to medically necessary care.
It was a program of the Health Network for Uninsured Clients, in a report released last week,…
