Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: No vacancies: So overburdened is Barrie's Royal Victoria Hospital that patients on stretches sometimes wait in halls two to three days before a bed becomes available. The hospital is already 225 beds below the provincial average and is predicted to be short 326 beds within the next five years; according to a report. Here; a woman on the bed is comforted by friends; while (at right) Jack Phillips; 45 waits for son; Tristan; 10; to have a few stitches.
