Healthcare system has been consistently underfunded under both liberal and conservative governments. This didn't just happen overnight.
I'm not saying this isn't factual, but I'm struggling to recall federal Liberal health care cuts, while I can think of quite a few conservative ones. Not being partisan, just trying to think of examples.
Seems like you have selective memory https://www.therecord.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/health-care-system-hurt-by-liberal-cuts/article_8f93ee50-12a6-5aec-b808-b65edafae95d.html
guessing that the downvoters aren't happy to reflect on the actual facts of the situation
The Ontario liberals are definitely a hot fucking mess. Aren't we discussing the Canadian liberals here? Provincial parties aren't 1 to 1 with Federal parties, for example an Alberta NDP and an Ontario NDP are very different, both at a party and individual level.
The context of the discussion is an article about healthcare cuts in Ontario. Did you read the article we're discussing?
Fair enough. I mean health care belongs to the provinces anyways. Ontario liberals are their own little island though, I lump them in as just as fucking corrupt than the Ontario conservatives. Ontario politics were a sewer long before the Ford boys showed up (to provincial politics). Not sure I'd automatically put the liberals from all the other provinces in the same bucket though. Most of the provincial conservatives have historically been pretty consistent in attacking healthcare though. And we can't even compare this new (super old?) breed of conservatives that we face.
