Mike Goetz has added bill collector to his list of responsibilities as mayor of Merritt in British Columbia's Interior.
The mayor isn't alone in his frustration with the state of B.C.'s health system. Temporary emergency room shutdowns have hit rural and urban hospitals, hundreds of cancer patients have been sent across the U.S. border for radiation therapy, and there's a shortage of nurses and doctors. B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad made health care the focus of his first major platform commitment in July, long before Opposition Leader Kevin Falcon suspended his BC United Party's campaign and threw his support behind the Conservatives.
In the video from June, Rustad said he'd realized vaccination campaigns weren't about trying to stop the spread of COVID-19 but rather were"around shaping opinion and control on the population." In an interview with Global News over the Labour Day long weekend, when several emergency rooms were closed, Dix said the government was"doing absolutely everything we can" and that"we don't consider it ever acceptable" for emergency rooms to close.
The NDP is promising that if re-elected it will expand when pharmacists can prescribe medications, reduce paperwork for doctors, add more physician assistants and expand the range of services they provide. Ahead of the election the The BC College of Family Physicians and BC Family Doctors published a series of requests for its members from the next government, including access to extended health and dental benefits, sick days and a pension plan.
Adriane Gear, president of the BC Nurses' Union said working in an emergency room was a particularly challenging role.
