RICHMOND HILL, ON, May 26 - The following is a statement from Sharleen Stewart, president of SEIU Healthcare, the union that represents over 60,000 frontline healthcare workers in Ontario:
On April 16, 2020, I wrote to you requesting that your provincial government use its existing authority in the Long-Term Care Homes Act to take over administrative and operational control of the crisis by putting problematic facilities in trusteeship.
Union is calling for three urgent investigations by Premier Ford, the Regional Police, and Ontario's Chief Coroner to keep people alive and determine accountability.
