With the ongoing erosion of B.C.’s health care system and the continued lack of urgent action from the NDP government to address the now system-wide crisis, the BC Liberals are asking the question, where is NDP Health Minister Adrian Dix and the NDP’s long-promised health care human resources plan?
"For months we have watched the crisis in B.C.’s health care system grow and tragically, some British Columbians have lost their lives as a result of the dysfunction in the system. This has become a province-wide crisis that continues to get worse by the day, and yet Minister Adrian Dix refuses to take any responsibility or offer any short-term solutions," said Shirley Bond, BC Liberal Critic for Health.
"From the start, Minister Dix has continually downplayed the situation, failing to acknowledge the crisis or provide any accountability in the face of numerous tragedies. At this point, how can we trust that he’s going to do anything meaningful to improve the state of health care in B.C. when he won’t even admit the scale of the problem? Minister Dix should be front and centre taking immediate action to save B.C. lives but instead, he continues to dodge accountability and refuses to admit there is a crisis in our health care system."
