Fixing problems instead of finding the cause.

I think part of what he's getting at is that we're going for bells and whistles; sexy versus practical; political win versus what's really needed.
I forget what study it is, but it's often quoted, health care (hospitals, etc) only account for 22% of healthy solutions. The greatest impact on health is education at 28% but incrementally improving our education system isn't as flashy as building a children's hospital. |

You guys should be a lot more excited about this project, the site planning and logistics are quite complex being that a 7 floor building being built between a Parkade and the existing hospital! Two tower cranes and two concrete placing booms will be onsite. I believe this will be the first project in Saskatchewan to have more than stationary concrete pump. This is quite an exciting project!

I'm sure I'll be more excited once those cranes are up....

It IS a good project for the province, BUT....Should have been an extension of the City Hospital with the Children's Museum and redeveloped Kinsmen Park for family and kids right next door with beautiful green space for families with children in the hospital to enjoy....just saying....:rolleyes:

Quite an imposing presence on the riverbank, and highly visible too -- all the way from the Buckwold Bridge to the south, and Circle Drive Bridge to the north. Beats looking at the brutalist wing of RUH that it's now blocking from view.

Yes Echoes I always liked the view traveling from east to west with city hospital in view, now we will have a hospital going from west to east, nice.
