World War Two veteran takes on one more battle

Wed, Oct 31: Veteran Wolf William Solkin is seeking a class-action lawsuit against both levels of government for what he calls the degradation of services. Solkin says that since the Ste. Anne Hospital was handed over to the province from the federal government in 2016, services and care have gone downhill. As Global’s Dan Spector explains, the lawsuit is seeking $30 million in funding for the hospital, as well as compensation for patients and their families.
