Anonymous is right. If the government brings in a supervisor I predict dire consequences for NHH and the community as a whole. When one looks at other hospital that have had supervisors inposed on them (Quinte, Kingston General, Huronia, Toronto East General) there are usually more cuts and rationalizations than would otherwise occur. Do the research people.

Sheeesh, don't you hefty lefties ever stop whining and telling others what to do?

Just because you have low level intellgence and can't distinguish one arguement or posit from another, doesn't mean the world revolves around you dolts. Merk & Deb -- get back to the arguements being made.

Your god-damned Allah-damned whining is irritating and chronic.

Copy/paste the point, italicize it, and then proceed. If you two don't know how to do this, go get a 9yr old.

I will second that opinion. It's getting tiresome and I hate to insult the wrong Anonymous by mistake.

For a remedy even easier than getting a Google account, a poster can pick "name/URL" and then make up one. Like "reactionary anonymous" maybe, or "shy anonymous". Anything so we can tell them apart.

Jesus Christ, Ben, if only for the sake of dolts like me that like a kind of minimalamist order in their otherwise totally chaotic lives, you gotta drop all these stupid, stupid, stupid 'Anonymous' comments.

How the hell does anyone tell one anonymous from another? Or are they all the same person? And if that's the case is that person so utterly purblind STUPID that they can't figure out how to get a Google ID such that they might clarify their own argument?

Or don't they know a godamned 9-year old that can help the figure it out like I did?

Or are they just purposefully trying to cloud, to obfuscate, to confuse, to muddy the wat
ers, to make Deb shadow-box her way into old age? C'mon, Ben. Straighten this out or there's no argument at all and anybody worth listening to is just wasting their breath.

Something that has always bugged me in this is the amount of people who still park at Walmart etc. and walk over so they do not have to pay for parking. Try spending some time in Sick Kids or Kingston General and you quickly realize that the parking here is cheap.

We are lucky to have a great hospital in this Town, It is time to get behind it, not try to bring it down.

Is there some jealous motive behind this? Because Biron makes a lot of money?

Maybe you should try runing it, Ben, it may be a lot harder than it looks from the out side.

BTW whatever happened to your Peter Delanty "should run or not" survey.

Seems to me - that people voted not how you would - so it took it off.

I'll say it again - the only pressure point that will bring lasting results is Queen's Park. The buck stops there, and like it or not, that's who writes the rules. The first comment is likely to be more relevant than you wish.

Deb asks "On what basis do you make it?" I'd point to past experience for an indication of the direction that all this is likely to turn to. No one can accurately predict the outcomes but experience suggests some unexpected ones. There may well be some regrets down this road, on both sides of what should have only one side, people who need affordable health care provided by a system meant to deliver it where and when as needed. At least that's the original objective, isn't it? So what's happened here to get in the way of that noble purpose, and why? To me, that's the billion dollar question needing a straight answer.

btw - this is not the same annon as the first one.

2010-06-12T12:47:52.260-04:00

That's a dire predication Anonymous. On what basis do you make it? Has it happened before? What do you mean by "local egos" the hosptial CEO and his gang of bum boys or the citizens' groups who are trying to ensure democracy is practised under the rules of the Corporation Act?

Just wondering, and I make no apology for inserting my own freely held opinion into my questions.

"For the public good", not a chance. You heard it here first. If this stunt works it will spell the end to your local hospital. It will set off a chain of events that will focus the government on why local hospitals left to their local egos cannot function and put it number one on the list to close.
