总理蒂姆·休斯顿(Tim Houston)在政府对王位的讲话期间继续表示关注医疗保健,但未能提供任何解决该省住房危机的具体承诺。
中校亚瑟·勒布朗(Arthur Leblanc)deliveredthespeechat Province House on Tuesday, marking the beginning of the first full, in-person sitting of the Nova Scotia Legislature since the pandemic began.
演讲是新的进步保守政府向立法机关即将到来的打算要完成的目标的方式,在这种情况下是第64届大会的第一届会议。修复医疗保健是主要的重点,这也就不足为奇了。
“Our government isn’t focused on simply saying what they think people want to hear to improve healthcare. We are actually interested in improving the lives and health of Nova Scotians,” LeBlanc said.
“We will continue to do the work and the research, putting forward solutions for Nova Scotians.”
演讲致力于促进招募医护人员,帮助外国培训的医生在新斯科舍省获得认证,为候补名单上的每个人提供远程医疗,为家庭医生提供远程医疗,改变了患者的转移方式以释放救护车,并增加了手术时间。
演讲的另一个关键承诺:普遍心理保健。
“对于那些有幸拥有保险或负担私人护理的人,访问不应是独有的。访问应该是真正的普遍性。”勒布朗说。
“If you don’t qualify for private mental health coverage, under our plan you will.”
It’s unclear how that will work, but the government said it will reduce wait times for mental health care and attract more mental healthcare workers to Nova Scotia.
为了帮助老年人,政府表示将建立“新的,单床的长期护理室,开始满足等待名单上的人们的需求,以及将来需要床的老年人,雇用“更长期的护理员工支持居民并支持当前员工,并提高“长期护理物业中的最低护理标准”。
税收承诺,但没有真正解决住房危机的解决方案
宝座的讲话重复了PCS的广告系列承诺,以退还给员工加薪的企业的公司税。
“我们的政府将为雇主提供选择:将他们作为公司税支付的钱交给政府税,或者以他们向团队分配相同的钱的条件回要求。这是一个简单的决定,这将意味着在赚钱的人的手中更多的钱:新斯科舍省。”演讲说。
“这不是富人的计划,这是中产阶级的计划,也是那些努力加入的计划。如果您想保持竞争力,您将支付竞争力的薪水。这意味着更好地支付工作和成长的企业。”
另一项竞选承诺,该讲话承诺在30岁及以下的商业人士的前50,000美元中免除所得税。
That same section of the speech includes the one and only use of the word ‘housing,’ with the government suggesting bringing in more tradespeople and increasing supply is central to its plan.
“There is a housing crisis in Nova Scotia. We have a plan to address this crisis — and attracting and training more trades people is critical to its success,” the speech said.
演讲中没有与住房相关的具体承诺。
在环境中,演讲重申了新斯科舍省的承诺:“到2030年,可再生能源将提供80%的能源。”
最后,演讲致力于在新斯科舍省创建固定的选举日期,这是唯一没有他们的省,并恢复了公共帐户委员会的权力。前总理斯蒂芬·麦克尼尔(Stephen McNeil)限制了委员会可以讨论的主题范围,并减少了会议的频率。
Opposition responds
Liberal leader and former premier Iain Rankin responded to the speech in the chamber, saying his caucus would hold the government to account, particularly on its commitments to fix health care.
“There is no need to wait for the budget to inject the half billion dollars that was promised in the election into the system,” Rankin said. “We will be asking questions to see when that money will be spent and the resources needed to take on these issues that were promised to Nova Scotians, but we will be there to support the government when they make positive changes in the system.”
Rankin highlighted the lack of commitment around housing in Tuesday’s speech.
兰金说:“在王位的讲话中,这是一段关注的一段。”他指出,讲话确实说政府有一个计划。
The Liberals will bring forward legislation around protecting tenants and increasing supply, Rankin said.
新民主党还指出,政府讲话中的住房危机缺乏紧迫性。
新民主党领导人加里·伯里尔(Gary Burrill)在新闻稿中说:“几乎没有提及住房,也令人失望的是,在今天的讲话中,解决住房危机的零政策倡议。”
“我们必须解决荒地护理系统中的大量问题。满足人们医疗保健需求的一部分是承认安全,安全,可访问的住房是拥有健康的新斯科舍省的一部分。”
