It appears that health ministers Eric Hoskin and Sarah Hoffman (Ontario and Alberta inset) will saw-off in a deal to pay for the $10,000 bill to fly premature baby Amelia Savill from Timmins to Sudbury. The baby was born two months premature to her mom Amy. The infant had to be moved because Timmins Hospital could not care for a preemie like Amelia. Amy is from Alberta and was cleared to travel to Timmins to see her parents. But her water broke two weeks ago as she slept. Today, Health Minister Hoskin spoke to reporters at Queen’s Park and said the two provinces are determined to resolve the matter in a way that is in keeping with the expectation of concerned citizens.
