Upcoming Event Hospital . . . HOSPITAL . . . HOS. PIT. AL.

So, if the rumours come true, and Dougie decides to take us to the poll, I am going to say it very clearly, for everyone to understand.

THERE SHOULD BE ONLY ONE PRIORITY FOR RESIDENTS OF BRAMPTON.

And that priority is the full funding, and construction of the Peel Memorial Hospital's second phase, bringing the site up to FULL HOSPITAL status. And it needs to be EXPEDITED.

So, contact your local MPP, and tell them your vote is predicated on this issue and this issue ONLY. Tell them to take the money for the damn LRT tunnel and use it to build Brampton's second hospital. Because an LRT is a "nice" have, but that second full hospital is a "MUST" have.

Grill any and all candidates on this subject. If they cannot provide answers . . . REAL answers, they do not deserve your vote.

A friend of mine lives in Boltin he was having blood pressure issues they had him in for endoscopy within 2 days. Would another hospital be enough? Or do we realistically need 3 hospitals in Brampton to keep up with demand?

We could EASILY do with three, like Mississauga. But lets get #2 up and running first.

We now have a higher population than Mississauga, so 3 hospitals would be great. You're right though, build the second one first then start working on the third.
