Dear Editor,
I have occasion to be at the Meaford Hospital and it got me to thinking. We consider ourselves lucky to have the hospital, but it is not luck. We fought for that hospital. When the political toadstools wanted to close it, we had strong, competent, courageous leaders fight back.
Through their determination and effort, the hospital was saved; maybe not as it was but enough for us to save lives. Let us apply the same philosophy to the rest of our medical system. If we don’t find a way to fight back we will have private care instead of public. It is called, “Health for the wealthy.”
Sincerely,
Roberta Docherty, Meaford
