Found it odd that Canadian Military would do this. but what do I know.

this happened around the time that NORAD in Cheyenne mountain went into lockdown from outside world. Never really posted about it here, but this anon assumed that Canadian Mil was on our side beccause of the joint command structure of NORAD.

 

 

Military report reveals what sector has long known: Ontario's nursing homes are in trouble

System has been 'ignored' and 'neglected' for decades, says province's minister for long-term care

Jacqueline Mitchell hasn't been able to hug her 94-old-mother since March, and now, in the face of a shocking Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) report into the state of five Ontario long-term care homes, she is aghast.

 

Mitchell's mother has Alzheimer's disease and has been a resident at Etobicoke, Ont.'s Eatonville Care Centre since 2017. That's one of the homes listed in the report, which details disturbing observations made by military members who were called in to help after some of the province's long-term care facilities were overrun by COVID-19 outbreaks.

 

The CAF report outlines instances in which members spotted equipment used on both infected and non-infected patients without being disinfected, as well as rotten food, cockroach infestations and a startling disregard for basic cleanliness.

 

"It is scandalous. It is shameful. It is shocking," Mitchell said. "Our senior generation is living in that, and that is a national atrocity."

 

There are many signs the provincial government knew, or should have known, what's happening inside these homes, but it took military intervention to bring the details to light.

Merrilee Fullerton, Ontario Minister of Long-Term Care, says the province is committed to fixing long-term care homes in need of help after a report by the Canadian military on conditions in five facilities. 2:02

For weeks, Ontario Premier Doug Ford has been saying the province's long-term care system is "broken." And on Tuesday he said that he saw firsthand the limitations of the system when his brother, former Toronto mayor Rob Ford, was in palliative care before his death in 2016.

 

That, to Mitchell, signalled an acknowledgement on the premier's part that something was very wrong with the system.

 

"That should have alerted him on a personal basis to what was happening in these homes.โ€ฆ He should not be surprised," she said.

 

Ford faces blowback after military report reveals 'horrific' conditions at Ontario long-term care homes

Since the first weeks of the pandemic, Ford has been advocating for the need to put an "iron ring" around Ontario's long-term care homes, with the province touting measures it has enacted to keep people safe, like limiting visitors and preventing most caregivers from working at multiple homes. The province then asked for the military's help late last month.

 

As of Tuesday, the Ministry of Long-Term Care was reporting 1,538 deaths linked to COVID-19, while the Public Health Ontario Daily Epidemiologic Summary listed 4,892 cases among residents.
