My question is to the Premier.

On July 26, a senior named Shirley, who lives in Fort Erie, had a fall in her home. Injured and alone, she pressed her Lifeline alert button. Ten minutes later, she received a call from Lifeline, who informed her that they were told she would not get an ambulance for six hours.

Workers are doing everything they can, but this government has ignored their pleas for more resources and, in fact, cut health care resources.

Is the Premier proud that, under his watch, residents who dial 911 have to wait six hours for an ambulance?

I raised this issue back in February.

To the Premier: Just days ago, the Premier said very clearly that health care was just fine. Once again, is the Premier proud that, under his watch, residents are getting taxis five hours late instead of the emergency care that this government is supposed to provide?

Also, I want to be very clear: Taxi drivers in the province of Ontario are not paramedics.

Thank you very much and congratulations to my good friend on your re-election. Keep up the good work. I’ve got a couple of softball questions for you because I know you’re probably a little tired from the election. Do you support Highway 413, and if you don’t, why? Do you support Bill 124, and if you don’t, why? Why do you think this government will not repeal Bill 124? And my understanding is, because I’m not always correct, inflation was running at 8%, their raises are capped at 1% and that’s a pay cut to our most important nurses—not just nurses; paramedics, corrections officers, education workers—a pay cut of 7%. Why do you think this government will not support repealing Bill 124?
