The crisis in health care came to a head this week with the cancellation of some surgeries in Nova Scotia. It's being blamed on a high number of emergency visits and admissions, combined with staffing pressures. The service reductions come amid nursing and ambulance shortages and tens of thousands of Nova Scotians without a family doctor.

And this Doctor Heather Johnson, President of Doctors Nova Scotia expressing some optimism and hope for the future of health care.
