Using the dramatic and entertaining 100-year history of the Queen Elizabeth as a base, Who Killed the Queen? investigates Canada’s mass closures of hospitals and hospital beds between 1994 and 1998. The book shows that the resulting 20% loss of beds – a figure unparalleled in the history of any other industrialized country – continues to affect hospital and health care in every province. Holly Dressel offers strong evidence as to who and what was responsible for the closures and also provides well-supported, international assessments of the current quality of the Canadian health care system, arguing that it can not only be saved but strengthened.
