Opposition Day No. 3:
Jour de l'opposition n° 3 :
Marit Stiles — Whereas hospital infrastructure is vital to protecting the health of the public and in strengthening Ontario in the face of economic uncertainty; and

Whereas the Government has identified priority nation-building infrastructure projects, but failed to include any healthcare infrastructure; and

Whereas there are significant hospital infrastructure projects which have experienced long delays and funding cuts under Liberal and Conservative governments; and

Whereas hospital infrastructure improvements create good union jobs for construction trades people; and

Whereas hospital expansions create good union jobs for health care workers;

Therefore, in the opinion of the House, the Government must designate critical hospital infrastructure as nation-building projects and fund them in the 2025 Budget, including specific commitments to new hospitals for Durham Region, Brantford, Kitchener-Waterloo and Brampton; re-opening the Minden Hospital; expanding the Windsor-Essex Regional Hospital, Queensway Carleton Hospital, Arnprior Regional Hospital and Hamilton Health Sciences; redeveloping the Weeneebayko General Hospital and Health Sciences North; renovating the Thessalon Hospital, Matthews Memorial Hospital, Manitoulin Health Centre and Red Lake Margaret Cochenour Memorial Hospital; and restoring 24/7 emergency services and urgent care to Welland Hospital, Douglas Memorial and Port Colborne.

Addressed to the Premier.
