Former Health Minister Blames Ministry for Scandal
Former Ontario health minister George Smitherman is pointing the finger at health bureaucrats for failing to keep an eye on Ornge.
Smitherman told a legislative committee the Ministry of Health should have seen the red flags at the troubled air ambulance service before it became a full-blown scandal.
Smitherman signed the original agreement that created Ornge in 2005.
