Quality medical care

Dear Editor,

As we watch our local hospitals descend into chaos – underfunded, understaffed, and overworked – we are facing a crisis

Located just across the border, the Hawkesbury General Hospital remains a place we all receive quality bilingual care.

Drawing on staff and patients from both Quebec and Ontario it is a beacon of calm and great quality medical care.

I consider us to be quite privileged to have access to their services.

The Vaudreuil-Soulanges hospital promised for over three years remains nothing but a sign in the field and I believe I will never see it in my lifetime.

May I strongly suggest you consider donating to the Hawkesbury General Hospital Foundation as I have done? It remains, and must continue, as a source for our healthcare.

They have been forced to cancel many fundraising projects recently and need our support.
