HALIFAX—Nova Scotia’s NDP and Liberal leaders attacked Progressive Conservative leader Tim Houston’s claims of reviving the province’s ailing health-care system, citing patient horror stories during a televised debate Thursday.
As Houston stuck to his argument that his government inherited “a mess” that it has started to stabilize, Liberal Leader Zach Churchill responded by saying that the number of people on a wait list seeking family doctors has gone from 60,000 when the Liberals governed to recent figures of about 145,000.
