SLEAZY . Grab these screenshots and posts , compile them into a rthedonald self post , and correct the record <| sep |> See this is the problem , the Civic ' s primary function is to be Eastern Ontario ' s only trauma center . Parking is irrelevant , access to the LRT is irrelevant , these are luxuries compared to elements like patient impact , highway access and centralization . Burying the hospital between residential and the river with no access points to the highway besides an already overwhelmed ParkwayParkdale is reckless , stupid and dangerous . Example It ' s the middle of the winter 10 years from now , it ' s 5 pm , people are leaving work from Tunney ' s and the new hospital , traffic is jammed on the Parkway and Parkdale etc . in both directions because it ' s also game night , the Senators are playing at their new stadium down the road , and fans are starting to make their way in from the suburbs for a pregame drink . Being a cold climate adoption of the LRT isn ' t as high as planned and a large number still choose to drive in causing mayhem and congestion on surface streets . Then a horrible blizzard hits , multiple accidents reported all over the region , many in critical condition and helicopters has been grounded due to visibility . What do you think the impact on response time will be for those in need ? Do you think it will improved or be negatively affected because of the new location ? Whereas the original Experimental Farm option would allow for , at the very least , the same response level we currently enjoy and realistically that response time could be improved upon with new infrastructure , technology and practices . Minutes matter people , unfortunately some of you will never understand that fact until you ' re in an emergency situation . Lets see how much you care about protecting a contaminated empty field when your kid is bleeding out from a head wound .
