NDP leader Carla Beck tore down the Saskatchewan Party government on Tuesday, after finding out it denied a $2 million donation for an MRI in Estevan.
“I encourage you to work with St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation to determine what alternate needs the hospital may have that can utilize your generous donation.”
The R.M. of Browning caught wind of Walkom’s donation and the province’s denial in August and wrote a letter of their own. “There are certainly other locations that require MRI services just as much as Estevan, but this donation would adequately provide a service that the province cannot afford to decline anywhere.”The R.M. said that Estevan would be the perfect location for a new MRI machine in the province.
“Even if an MRI scanner were to be installed in Weyburn, there would unfortunately still be communities in southeast Saskatchewan closer to MRI scanners in North Dakota, USA.”“If the excuse is that the recruitment plan isn’t working well enough to find two people in the whole of the southwest of the province or recruit people to the province to run this MRI and that’s the block… I would invite the premier to the southeast of the province to explain why that is the case.
