PM says a “national conversation” is needed about future of long-term healthcare

The Prime Minister says he has talked to the Quebec Premier about a military report on the state of long-term care homes in that province.

The report highlights staffing shortages, improper use of personal protective equipment, and isolating cases of COVID-19. Both provinces have requested the military remain in homes for another 30 days and Justin Trudeau says those discussions continue.
