This public-private partnership (yes, you, dear Ontario taxpayer, are paying the dividends that will flow to the U.S.) says, in the government's own words, "over 350 new fully private beds". news.ontario.ca/en/release/1...
That means 1 person to the room. Now. Maybe later, something you can pay for.

The CMA spent a year studying public and private health models and consulting with more than 10,000 Canadians on the balance between the two. The evidence is clear: where a parallel private health system operates, both health outcomes and access to care are worse.

The First World War took the lives of about 2,900 Toronto residents, or about two per cent of the city’s male population. This map owes a lot to the Canadian Great War Project, which was generous about sharing its research. /2 t.co/Z2HMqKg2dk
