, especially where health care is concerned. The non-profit business model offers just that, and it's time our governments invest in it.
In Canada, we have a long tradition of non-profits working in partnership with governments to build community infrastructure and provide services. But for the past 20 years, for-profit corporations have been taking over these services and the results have been disastrously poor, including short cuts in service provision and understaffing.
The key learning from this tragedy should be that it doesn’t make sense to allow for-profits to deliver our health care too.for delivering and operating critical services, from Thunder Bay to Barrie, Windsor to London, and across the GTA to Kanata. It puts service and community-based missions first, rather than profit. Revenues under this model are put back into staffing and expanding, innovating, or improving services, all factors that drive high quality of care.
