Aylmer sector merits the new hospital
Despite the government announcement (and it has changed its announcements before!) that it wants the Outaouais entirely ruled by the downtown Gatineau clique (centralizing all control there and centralizing most services there) the rest of the Outaouais must not give up the fight to make all services realistically available to all citizens.
It seems to me that every functionnaire living in Quebec City thinks centralization decisions must be made and made from one centre. This is very old and dangerous thinking.
If the CAQ wants to "decentralize" health care, start with health care! Put the new hospital where it serves the most un-served citizens! Stop jerking the Outaouais around! Please!
