I’m so disappointed with the member, as he voted against a brand new, over a billion-dollar hospital, right in his own region. But, Mr. Speaker, what I was happy about with him is, he handed out my cell number to everyone, so I got to actually tell them the truth about you. I actually told them the truth, that you voted against doctors, voted against nurses, voted against the hospitals. And do you know something? After I was finished talking to endless people—not a little bit; it must have been over a hundred people I spoke to in his own riding—they agreed.

But you know what’s very, very difficult—and we’re doing everything we can, because we’ve registered over 10,000 doctors—is having doctors in that area to make sure that they’re taken care of when 80% of the people see the physicians in between 10 in the morning till 8 at night. We need more doctors in the area. We’re working very, very hard to attract doctors, to attract nurses—we’re paying for their education. And during that time, from 10 at night till 6 or 8 in the morning, they see about eight patients. We’re—

And, by the way, I’d like to ask him why he voted against a brand new hospital in his area—a billion-dollar hospital in the area? But I’d also like to ask him: Maybe he can go out and help us. Maybe you can recruit some doctors and nurses to work in that urgent care facility, because right now it’s very, very difficult to find them.

It’s not a money issue, Mr. Speaker. We need doctors across the province and if the nurses, like I said earlier, work in rural areas, we’ll pay. We will pay for their education. That’s why there were 17,500 nurses registered last year alone. Rather than complain, why don’t you get off your lazy butt and start working?

Interjections.
