Canada

Ah yes, Ford, who's more interested in getting beer into our bellies and land into the hands of his developer friends, than taking care of his constituents.

Friends don't let friends vote Tory.

I actually read the article,

Dude was completely stable (no fever, vitals stable, etc.) while staying in the emergency room for multiple days from a normal illness. Then he suddenly died overnight after saying he was going to the night before to his daughter.

"Zammit doesn't know what caused her father's death but pointed to the lack of resources at the hospital as significant factors."

That doesn't sound like the hospital failed him, that sounds like he was 88 and people die around that age from natural causes all the time. I'm not saying hospitals can't save people, but people do die eventually, even in hospitals.

Drug Fraud, the stealer of healthcare and thief of millions from healthcare transfer funds.

So, what to do now? Maybe stop electing asshole premiers who won't sign onto an agreement that locks healthcare transfers to be only spent on heathcare, education transfers to be spent on only education, etc etc. (which, btw, every premier declined to sign when Trudeau gave them extra billions ... because they're all fucking power-hungry assholes).

Elections have consequences.

Nationalize healthcare, take it out of the control of the provinces, have its funding hard-set to population metrics and then insulate it completely from political meddling. Ensure that all upper-level execs in this crown corp have never nor will never be involved with a related free-market corp, in order to prevent corruption and service degradation in favour of Parasite-Class profit margins.

Set up turnkey operations for GPs such that new doctors are incentivized to service communities at the grassroots level without driving themselves into poverty. Set up national unions for all healthcare workers that ensure wages remain appropriate for each region’s CoL. Set up a watchdog that ensures hospitals and other institutions are being run decently well in relation to the funding they receive, with the ability to seize underperformers (as in, shareholders lose everything) in order to bring them back up to minimum thresholds of service.

Finally, make the government the only possible payer for any healthcare service for anything, from vision and dental to physio and anything science-based (too bad chiropracty, we don’t need your snake oil). As in, make it illegal for anyone to be charged anything out of pocket, including drugs. Use economies of scale to minimize costs to the taxpayer.

That’s how you resolve the current conditions: you utterly eviscerate the profit motive when dealing with healthcare.

Don't worry, Ontario voters are still overwhelmingly supporting the pcpo, I'm sure things will get better.
