Privatized Healthcare is no ROYALE with CHEESE

Be warned--this episode is not for your kids, ok? We are MAD---annoyed in fact that we have to have this conversation---but here we are. In this episode, the Gritty Nurses discuss the current state of prviate vs. public healthcare in Canada. Is healthcare still universal, or are we sliding down a slippery slope?  They discuss what privatized healthcare looks like, whether we should be concerned, and what they think should be occurring.    References: https://www.ipolitics.ca/queens-park/health-canada-concerned-about-ontario-company-that-charges-for-virtual-doctor-visits  https://www.reddit.com/r/ontario/comments/etvke2/has_anyone_every_used_maple_online_doctor/?rdt=48992  https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/maple-health-online-doctor-visits-1.4194285  https://www.cbc.ca/radio/asithappens/maple-health-ceo-private-health-care-1.6777485#:~:text=Brett%20Belchetz%20is%20the%20CEO,services%20billable%20to%20private%20insurers.
