Trojan Horse Tour - Fight the Privatization of Hospital Surgeries

CUPE Local 815
Oct 9, 2024

Updated: Nov 11, 2024



The Ontario has just doubled the amount it spends on surgeries performed in private clinics and private hospitals.

 

OCHU-CUPE and the Ontario Health Coalition are kicking off a multi-community tour to push to keep surgeries in our public hospitals. The tour involves a giant wooden Trojan Horse, which is a metaphor for a gift which looks attractive, but which is actually very dangerous. For-profit surgeries cost twice as much as those performed in our hospitals.


Thanks for the great turn out!
