Putting People before Profits in Long Term Care

On this episode, we feature an excerpt from our wonderful Town Hall on the state of Long Term Care in Ontario. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the worst consequences of our province's mismanaged, privatized long term care system. We talk to Dr. Vivian Stamatopoulos, a professor at Ontario Tech University and a LTC advocate, Georgette Morris, a researcher and coordinator with Jaku Konbit Ottawa and Lynn Steele, founder of the Canadian PSW Network. I (producer Kieran) included some Bessie Smith because, as my professor used to say, the blues are about feeling good about feeling bad, and I think we've all been feeling a little bad lately.  Did you like the show?
