Disgusting to hear of people in shit-stained beds dying of thirst and neglect while being hosed $5000 a month!
Makes you want to demand they send the Army in to take over and nationalize these laces.
i sincerely hope that isn't true
just another thing that should infuriate folks.
the care homes were an already-falling house of cards
both my parents were in one for years. No problems at all, but as I alluded to 75% of the staff were immigrants. Did everything, but couldn't speak enough English to tell you what or why.
Court documents reveal owner of CHSLD Herron's lengthy criminal past
Shocking stuff. In my neck of the woods, nursing homes are one of the few ways left to make a fortune which tends to attract all sorts of people into the business, none that I know of quite like that character, though. Residents are sitting ducks right now
In some countries, they have a mechanism for civil forfeiture. In other words, the govt simply seizes the assets of a career criminal and says we�ll give this back to you if you can show how you earned the money for it:

We have this here, but the onus is put on the person to prove they did not receive the asset as proceeds of a crime. This means things you already own can be seized as proceeds of a crime, even if you owned them before the crime allegedly took place.

Thank you. It sounds a bit arbitrary and petty in some cases:
In one case, a man in Saskatchewan sold $60 worth of Oxycontin he legally owned to buy gas so he could drive to work. The government took away his $7,500 truck.
One Ontario couple saw their $400,000 12-unit apartment building seized because some renters were involved in illegal activities. The province argued they should have evicted the tenants. In another Ontario case, the province sought to confiscate a couple�s two rooming houses because some tenants allegedly sold drugs.

I�d prefer to see major drug kingpins targeted, serious criminals. BTW what does a 400,000 dollar 12 unit apartment building look like in Ontario? Sounds fairly Spartan.
