Billboards for the CSSS Hospital in Vaudreuil-Soulanges

BILLBOARDS FOR THE HOSPITAL

Vaudreuil-Dorion, June 21, 2013. The Citizens' Committee for a hospital in Vaudreuil-Soulanges is eager to see the hospital it has been asking for over three years built.

IN 2018! , proclaim the posters he intends to scatter throughout Vaudreuil-Soulanges.

Like the representatives of the MRC de Vaudreuil-Soulanges, who sounded the alarm last week, the Citizens' Committee intends in turn to express its concern at the government's slowness in deciding on the site of the future hospital.

“Our region is unanimous, say the Committee's representatives. With a petition with 43,000 signatures, our citizens nevertheless sent a clear message to government decision makers.”

“It's not a whim to ask for a hospital when our growing population (over 143,000 in 23 municipalities) has to rely on outside hospitals, or even in Ontario, for essential services.”

IN 2018

The Citizens' Committee's billboard campaign is short on formulas. It reads “IN 2018", which, in the eyes of the representatives, is the essential message to remember at this time.

“Our concern is to see the deadlines for choosing the land, or even the start of construction, delayed to such an extent that it could put the project itself at risk. Or maybe they tell us right away what's wrong.”

The population of Vaudreuil-Soulanges is following the file closely. Local newspapers regularly broadcast information on the issue. “The population is aware. What is the government waiting for? That we mobilized, as we did in 2003, when our CSSS was created? ask his spokesmen.

The current billboard campaign aims to recall the essence of the struggle of the citizens of Vaudreuil-Soulanges: to obtain hospital services as soon as possible for their region, in 2018.

The Vaudreuil-Soulanges Citizens' Committee is made up of people from all over the two counties of Vaudreuil-Soulanges. Business people, professionals, public women and men... they have been major players in the field for more than three years.
