MPP Rick Byers responded to Mr. Braeker's letter about his wife's lack of home care support after surgery, and the onlgoing deterioration of Ontario's health care system. Mr. Byers called Mr. Braeker, and followed up with this letter:

Hi Karl.

It was good to speak with you today and I appreciate your sharing information about your wife’s situation since her surgery on August 4th. And thank you for the care you have provided her at your home during this period. Certainly, improving our homecare service is a priority for our government and for me, and I am pleased that we have committed substantial additional funding in this area of healthcare. I will work with our local home and primary care providers to improve the service, and having the information you provided me is very helpful for that process.

Many thanks again,

Rick.
