HALIFAX — A Nova Scotia mother who says she waited two years for her cancer diagnosis has released a viral, highly emotional video calling out Premier Stephen McNeil for not declaring a health-care crisis in the province. “To the premier of Nova Scotia, I dare you to take a meeting with me … and tell me there is no health-care crisis,” Inez Rudderham, 33, said in a viral Facebook video that has been viewed over 1.5 million times. “There are not enough physicians to meet the health-care needs of Nova Scotians,” a report released in January by Doctors Nova Scotia said. “This is the face of the health-care crisis in Nova Scotia, and I dare you to tell me otherwise,” she says, pointing to her own face. “There are challenges in the health care system in … access to primary care, we’ve always acknowledged that,” McNeil said.
