Jane Philpott

As you know, health care as a line item is over 40% of our $220 billion budget at $101 billion annually.

And with the help of Dr. Jane Philpott, we've created a primary care action plan across Ontario.

And this year, we've invested more than $4.1 million to connect more than 11,500 people across the province, or sorry, that's in Ontario, or in Simcoe.

So I'll say that again, 11,590 people in Simcoe County to primary care.

And the content seems to be adapting and growing more of a systemic inclusion, like from the system level.

Dr. Jane Philpott was here yesterday.

Yes.

Rob Fox from Ontario MD and Chris Solway were here yesterday.

Yeah, exactly.

So, and I don't think that is recognized enough.

I love that Jane Philpott is here, and I love that the gang from Ontario becomes.

I think that's a real validation for the importance of the role.

This is clearly, you know, you wanna sell books.

You, that's, that's, that's the goal, but I think this also just kind of reinforces the viewpoint that many Canadians now have of, of Justin Trudeau and, and even more so, and there's, you know, a list now of, of women in, from that cabinet or in that caucus who had falling, falling out, fallings out, significant ones, uh, Jody Wilson-Raybould, uh, you know, Jane Philpott, Celina Caesar-Chavannes, with the prime minister.

And so now this, this reinforces that pattern that he had trouble getting along with people, uh, women in, in particular and, and, you know, paints him as, as somewhat of a hypocrite.

And so, you know, just those inner workings of the political world and, and the, the Trudeau that we knew and how he presented himself and kind of, uh, you know, his descent, I suppose, uh, politically, uh, until the end of his term.

But if there were no more pension funds reduced, the number, and the number of life insurance reduced, the employment for actuaries, based on an estimate, would have, they would no longer, with no more pension funds and life insurance funds are reduced, they would have less job opportunities.

And in terms of politicians, my MP was Jane Philpott.

I gave her a half hour presentation and her final words were disgraceful lobbyists.

Now, four years ago, I sent these details to Premier Smith.

It requires thorough study.

I would remind everyone that the last time that this issue was considered by this government, when Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott appointed an expert panel, the recommendation was not to go ahead with advance requests.

Now, that report was from 2018.

That is several years ago.

... you're entering medical school with a commitment to go on to family medicine, a full six years, and I've been one of the teachers in that program too.

These are, these are wonderful initiatives, and Jane Philpott's work-

Mm

... um, to attach every, every Ontarian to a primary care team, it's hopeful.
