Ontario's plan to use private clinics for surgeries explained

Guest: Rob Ferguson, Queen's Park bureau The Ontario government has unveiled their plan to deal with surgical backlogs in the province by moving some procedures to private clinics. Critics fear this move will pull staff away from hospitals, and say this is moving the province toward more privatized, two-tiered health care that will cause further issues to the existing public system.
