Bill 15: Quebec health-care reform plan draws backlash from stakeholders

Quebec’s sweeping new health-care plan—Bills 15—drew a mixed reaction following its announcement Wednesday. Several health-care professionals say it’s a massive undertaking—especially for a health minister who initially said he didn’t want reform. “Big reforms tend to have a very destabilizing effect, and we need a clear implementation plan. [We] can’t be told, ‘do this and figure it out,'” said Natalie Stake-Doucet, past president of the Quebec Nurses Association. “It has to be clear how this is going to take place, how these changes are going to be made step by step.” The bill aims to create Santé Québec, an agency…

A Perceived Philosophical Conflict – PHE America

I am the only female in my high school PE department. It’s been this way for 20 years. The one time another female came in she tried to out-alpha the football coach and got removed from teaching PE and placed in Health. I think she might have taught one section of PE in the two years she was here, and I think it was Adapted PE.
