Katherine Fierlbeck grinds her teeth everytime she hears someone say we need to take the politics out of health care. Because every problem and challenge we see in the system today is because of political policy and choice. And as an electorate, we need to accept some of the responsibility. She is the Chair of the Political Science Department at Dalhousie University. And she has also spent a great deal of time researching and writing about the intersection of politics and health policy. In this eye-opening conversation, she takes us through the history of hospital construction after the wars to the creation of medicare to the cost-cutting measures in the 1990’s that spawned the Federal Provincial war that continues to this day. Professor Fierlbeck explains why cost-cutting was rewarded while marginalized people get pushed to the fringes. And why we’ll end up paying a lot more later, if we don’t take care of things today. But it’s not the government. It’s just the government responding to what the people want.
