CUPE Ontario has worked with the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL), the Ontario Health Coalition (OHC) and other allies to organize a Time to Care demonstration at Queen’s Park on Tuesday Feb 27 from 12 – 1 pm, with lunch provided.
With our work on The Time to Care Act, Bill 33, we are closer than ever to getting a legislated minimum standard of care for seniors in long term care. We know that, because of our campaign, long term care will be a big election issue in the June 2018 provincial election. I am proud of the incredible work of CUPE Ontario members, across all sectors, on this important campaign and on Feb 27, one week after MPPs are expected to return to Queen’s Park, we are organizing to send a loud and clear message that we won’t stop until 4 hours of direct, hands on care is the law in Ontario.
Seniors need a legislated daily minimum standard of 4 hours of direct, hands on care. We have all worked hard in the past few months to put pressure on Ontario MPPs and the Premier to recognize this and pass Bill 33. Please join me on Tuesday Feb 27 outside Queen’s Park to help us make Time to Care the law in Ontario.
