Together, we can stop Windsor's worst planning mistake ever

 

Our fundraising campaign continues!

Many thanks to everyone who has contributed so generously to our GoFundMe campaign launched in February 2019. Together, you have helped us raise $93,938 to keep keep healthcare where people live. With your support, CAMPP has analyzed thousands of hours' worth of data and produced detailed reports. We've been able to ask the critical questions local elected officials have often overlooked. We know you read and are inspired by CAMPP's Sunday emails. Many of you have told us how much you appreciate CAMPP's relentless efforts. You make it possible for CAMPP to advocate for a better hospital plan. So today, we're asking you to contribute again. We are still short of our fundraising needs -- money required to pay our legal costs. And starting today, December 13, 2020, we have a holiday announcement: Two generous donors have promised a total of $3,000 in matching funds for donations to CAMPP during the next month. That means all donations towards our legal expenses (up to $3,000) will be automatically doubled. There are several ways to support our legal campaign. We accept cheques and etransfers, or you can donate to our GoFundMe. Please give what you can, and give generously. And as always, thank you for supporting this historic legal appeal. Together, we can ensure accessible healthcare for generations to come.

In their own words: Members of our community comment on the issues this week

"IF you'd put pressure on WRH to change the plan, rather than continue to ram a faulty proposal through QP, maybe we'd get somewhere. Windsor needs leadership."

"If you really want a hospital, change the plan!! CAMPP can't change the plan to something this government will approve. This can only be done by Windsor Regional Hospital. Change the plan = investment. Why do "leaders" continue to blame the people? WRH and the city have the ability to get investment but they've dug in their heels and won't budge. This is not how a city is led. Windsor deserves better."

"WEEDC = City/County Slush Fund, your money people, over a quarter of a million dollars, shameful!"

"Parts of the OR are virtually new. When the last health minister was in Windsor speaking at the Ouellette site he as much stated maybe the newer part of the Ouellette site can be saved and used as day surgery but he never spoke in specifics much like this whole plan."

"In the Star today a story says Lasalle DC’s are going up by a few thousand. And they are so thankful for new development going in because without it Lasalles taxes would have to increase by 25%. That’s just scary. Does no one pay attention to this stuff? This is an acknowledged Ponzi scheme and everyone appears to be ok with it."

"So lets roll forward 10 years and assume that it is built and running, then factor in COVID my questions are, would it have the capacity to deal with the expected increase in Hospitalization’s to come, and will it be staffed well enough to deal with the scenario. In both cases I believe the answer to be NO. If you are gonna get it done, DO IT RIGHT the first time."
