The Canadian Medical Association is meeting this weekend, and they plan to
discuss the privatization and commercialization of health care. Canadians
should be very concerned this. Already across the country, the number of
private clinics extra billing, user fees, and other illegal practices are
growing while Health Minister Tony Clement and the Conservative government
refuse to administer or enforce the Canada Health Act.
But not all doctors want privatization. In fact, many of them want to protect,
expand and improve public health care, rejecting the CMA's push to privatize.
CUPE applauds these doctors for resisting for-profit medicine, and asks you to
join us in making that support clear to Minister Clement.
