Let’s send the new Health Minister of BC our Christmas wish list. Now’s the time to make our voices heard! Let’s ensure she knows what British Columbians need to see changed in the healthcare system to live healthier lives.

With the ongoing Canada Post strike, there’s never been a more crucial time to ensure you have access to your online medical records. Look up your health authority on our resource page and register today.

    I am absolutely confident that a physician assistant (PA) or nurse practitioner (NP), set up in an examination room in ER, could easily have seen/assessed/treated 1-2 dozen of such patients in 2-3 hours, administering perfectly adequate care allowing patients (like myself), that need to be seen by an MD without unacceptable delays. The same applies to the number of waiting patients in family practice clinics. It should be stressed that over-saturated ERs are not due to inadequate hospital facilities. Rather they represent an abject failure of provision of PC. In this regard, Canada resides near the bottom of over 20 OECD countries in wait times to see a doctor.

As healthcare continues to be a pressing issue in British Columbia, it's essential for voters to engage with political candidates on matters that directly impact the well-being of our communities. Asking the right questions ensures that candidates are not only aware of the challenges facing our healthcare system but are also prepared to advocate for meaningful reforms. This guide highlights critical questions voters can ask candidates running for MLA positions to gauge their commitment to improving healthcare services, ensuring transparency, and addressing the gaps in accessibility, staffing, and funding. By fostering informed dialogue, we can hold our future leaders accountable and push for a healthcare system that works for everyone.  - Share the responses you get with us on our blog, or Facebook Group.
