"The restructuring of our health care system is not being driven by any need to save money. We have kept our promise to protcct health care spending in Ontario at $17.4 billion and, in fact, we exceeded that level by spending $17.7 billion in the last fiscal year. That's more than any govem- ment in thse history of the province," strcssed Mr. Jackson. "But not only are we spending more, we spending smarter. Fewer dollars are goîng to administration, upkeep of aging build- ings, and duplicated services and more are being spent on direct patient care - more heart surgery, more cancer treatment and more eommunity-based services." -H RAD SERVICE e Radiator & Fuel Tank Repairs eAluminum Wolding 0Silver Soldring 400 MOROBEL DR., UNIT 4, MILTON, ON.
