Ontario had 102 healthcare systems in deficit for FY23.
They had 33 in deficit for FY22.

That's a 209% increase.

The average deficit went from ($545,000) to ($5,900,000).

That's a 992% increase in the average deficit of healthcare systems in Ontario in one year.

Not a funding issue.

We took 7,012 tweets and over 1,000 pages of documentation gathered over 9,000 hours of volunteer work effort and built ourselves a nice lil "Why did Minden ER close with six weeks' notice and no public consultation?" service.

Cool beans

All those grandparents dying in hallways crumbling your crackers?

Just don't look up! 😍
