Fiscal Prudence: Leader Darrell Dexter

Leader Darrell Dexter: On a day when he announced a New Democrat government would create 25 new long-term-care beds in Antigonish, Dexter said his party has proved during its four years in office they have the ideas and fiscal prudence to keep going, according to The Chronicle Herald. Those services include expanded dental care and insulin pumps for young people, initiatives to keep seniors in their homes longer and a recently announced plan to create new long-term-care beds, facilities and home-care services in the next few years and NDP Leader Darrell Dexter says he believes it will be one of the seminal questions in this election campaign : What party is best suited to deal with the continuing challenges facing health care? We took the money in the health-care envelope and used the ability to innovate in programs to supply much better services, he said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
