Okay, I think it's about time we start this back up again from this recent story in Canada...
Canada: outcry after video shows hospital staff taunting dying Indigenous woman
Quote:
Joyce Echaquan, a 37-year-old Atikamekw woman, arrived at a hospital in the Quebec city of Joliette on Monday, complaining of stomach pain.
The mother of seven had previously suffered similar issues and told staff she had a heart condition. Echaquan started live-streaming her experience on Facebook as her pain escalated, and staff at the hospital appeared indifferent to her pleas for help.
In the footage, Echaquan is seen grimacing as nurses call her “stupid as hell”. “Are you done acting stupid? Are you done?” asked one nurse in French as Echaquan moaned in pain.
“You made some bad choices, my dear,” another nurse said. “What are your children going to think, seeing you like this?”
“She’s good at having sex, more than anything else,” the first nurse said.

Absolutely terrible, just feel a pit in my stomach reading that and imaging how the poor girl must have felt.
