With all the controversy surrounding Bill 2, which will change how doctors and specialists are compensated in Quebec, there's been little said about the equally seismic Bill 7.

This lesser-known bill would  force the amalgamation of many government agencies, including Urgences-santé. Should Bill 7 become law, paramedic services in Montreal and Laval would be controlled through Santé Québec.

What was the reaction to Bill 2 from Hal Newman, former paramedic and curator of The Last Ambulance, a site that shares stories from those in emergency prehospital care (EMS)?

"God help us," Newman said. He joined hosts Bill Brownstein and Aaron Rand on this week's episode of The Corner Booth to sound the alarm on the bill and its potential consequences to emergency care in and around Montreal.
