CANADIANS CALL FOR FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF ROMANOW REPORT

To Prime Minister Jean Chrйtien and the Premiers of Canada:

We, the undersigned residents of Canada, are eager to strengthen Medicare. We believe that FULL AND IMMEDIATE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ROMANOW REPORT is an essential step to protect and enhance our most precious public service. Please heed the call of Canadians and work collaboratively to make sure we can count on a strong, comprehensive, and publicly funded, not-for-profit health-care system - for generations to come.

You can do that by: Increasing federal funding for targeted expansion of Medicare. Establishing accountability for health expenditures. Stopping the spread of privatization. Protecting our health-care from trade agreements. Pursuing all Romanow recommendations, including those on primary health-care, home care, pharmacare, funding remote and rural communities, reducing wait times for diagnostic services, and resolving health human resources shortages.

Prime Minister and Premiers, MEDICARE BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE OF CANADA, and we are looking to you for leadership and long-term vision like never before. We want our tax dollars spent on public health care for patients, not for private profits. PLEASE ACT NOW!



LES CANADIENS ET CANADIENNES DEMANDENT LA MISE EN UVRE COMPLИTE DU RAPPORT ROMANOW

Au Premier Ministre Jean Chrйtien et aux Premiers Ministres des provinces,

Nous, les soussignйs rйsidents du Canada, attendons avec impatience le renforcement du systиme de santй. Nous croyons que LA MISE EN OEUVRE COMPLИTE ET IMMЙDIATE DU RAPPORT ROMANOW est essentielle а la protection et а l'amйlioration de notre service public le plus prйcieux. Veuillez s'il vous plaоt considйrer attentivement la demande des Canadiens et Canadiennes, en travaillant conjointement afin de s'assurer que nous puissions compter sur un systиme de santй public, complet, efficace et sans but lucratif pour les gйnйrations а venir.

Vous pouvez atteindre ces objectifs en augmentant le financement fйdйral dans les domaines de la santй qui en ont le plus besoin, en йtablissant un mйcanisme pour rendre des comptes sur les dйpenses en santй, en mettant fin а la privatisation, en protйgeant nos soins de santй des accords de libre-йchange, et en rйalisant toutes les recommandations du Rapport Romanow, incluant les soins de santй de base, les soins а domicile, la couverture de mйdicaments prescrits, le financement des communautйs rurales et йloignйes, la rйduction du temps d'attente pour les diagnostics mйdicaux ainsi que la rйsolution des problиmes relatifs а la pйnurie de personnel en santй.

Messieurs les Premiers Ministres, LE SYSTИME DE SANTЙ APPARTIENT AUX GENS DE CE PAYS et nous nous attendons а ce que vous fassiez preuve de leadership et d'une vision а long terme comme jamais auparavant. Nous voulons que nos impфts et taxes servent а payer les soins de santй publics pour les patients, et non au profit du secteur privй. S'il vous plaоt, AGISSEZ MAINTENANT!

Sincиrement,

Soussignйs

    • We need to make our system even better. It does not make sense to bring in an inferior and more costly system like the US healthcare. Health care is The RIGHT of all Canadians.

    • Put social programs first like maybe free University programs like they have in most of Europe and you just might see 50 Percent of 24 year olds having degrees other than less than 25 percent under the present system that discourages young people from enter school because they don't want to get forty grand in debt and end up working a Burger King and never ever being able to buy a house or a half decent car because they are going to spend the rest of their lives paying off some massive student loan debt.
