and road repair. Why is the city building new when we can’t maintain what we already have. We’re behind enough.

In December 2019 WRH received an exemplary score of 99.8 % from Accreditation Canada in its present buildings. Our Cancer center and newer OR’s are state of the art. Our health care is not in any danger. We are well above acceptable levels of modern health care delivery.

There are no new services promised with the building of this brand new hospital. Doctors will not be attracted to a blighted city.

Windsor Essex has been waiting for five years for the Ontario government to forward our mega-hospital project. We’ve waited long enough. The Ministry of Health understands the location is a monumental mistake and legitimate concerns have never been addressed.

I ask the council to vote NO on this motion. I request that we let go of this proposed location and move on to something else. I believe that unless and until a new acceptable hospital location is found any request to the province will be ignored, and the campaign to keep it going futile.

Sincerely

Caroline Taylor
