The member of parliament for Québec solidaire Amir Khadir has used an analogy for the less striking, on Tuesday, as he denounced once again the agreement between the government and the medical specialists.

The politician has compared the savings said to have carried out the minister Gaétan Barrette with this agreement to those that he could do if he used a rope shorter “to hang”.

“If I have to pay for the rope that should hang myself and I have to pay a cord of five meters, it is sure that it’s going to cost me more expensive than a rope of four meters. Therefore, Gaétan Barrette was right to say he has achieved an economy in the rope that I have to pay for to hang me, but, at the end of the day, I’m hanged like that”, he imaged.

Amir Khadir, has also denounced the “dirty job” to Mr. Barrette in addition to again ask for his resignation.

“The health care system, with spending by Philippe Couillard, who has negotiated these agreements, with Gaétan Barrette, who was making just his dirty job, dirty job doctor corporatist interested only in the increase of the remuneration to the head of the FMSQ, huh… This is how it happened. A dirty job has been made between two medical specialists at the expense of public funds. It has diverted funds that should go in our operating rooms, in our CLSC to put it in the pocket of specialists already well paid. It’s, well, the extent of the damage, if it is reduced a bit, yes, it is a little better, but it is a mess of poor”, he lamented.
