TORONTO - Ontario NDP Leader Marit Stiles says if her party forms government she would establish safe nurse-to-patient ratios so patients get more care and nurses don't burn out.
Both Stiles and Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie are trying to keep the focus on the Ontario election campaign trail today on health care.
Stiles says the NDP would also hire at least 15,000 nurses over three years at a cost of $1.5 billion.
She also says hundreds of millions of dollars that go to for-profit temporary health-care staffing agencies should be redirected to the public system.
