It will be good to see what this means in terms of impact for Ontario's Kids. This is indeed a welcomed beginning. #MakeKidsCount

If children are waiting longer for surgery, diagnostic services, rehabilitation, mental health services than adults then shouldn’t we explore the virtue of a DISproportionate response? Let’s urge government to OVERinvest in kids. #Budget2023 #OntarioBudget

Make kids Count. This is an urgent investment for Children in Ontario and crucial for Durham's children and families. It is well past time to right size the system for kids.
#MakeKidsCount! Ontario children’s hospitals & health-care orgs ask @ONgov for $371.5 million to support pediatric care—funds are desperately needed to tackle surgical, clinical and diagnostic waitlists. Learn more: thestar.com/news/gta/2023/02… #OnPoli @picardonhealth @DrFullertonMPP
