The whole problem is that there will never be robust competition here in a private health system that will cater to the have's, leaving the have nots to pick up the scraps of an undermined and depleted public side. Right now service is going to #### because medical professionals are leaving or simply retiring early. It's one thing to deal with the job issues themselves, but when you throw in a system that vilifies the very people (teachers and nurses included) that deliver service, you have nothing left to appeal to those that don't absolutely need to work or need to stay in the province.

Except wages I guess and overall affordability compared to most other large centres.
