They are unbending defenders of the Second Amendment, conveniently forgetting that at the time of its passing (asserting the right of individuals to bear arms), the most powerful personal weapon was only a musket.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The NRA effectively controls Congress, primarily by being influential donors to the political campaigns of many, if not most, of those who are elected to that august body. They oppose any restrictions on gun ownership. They resist background checks and they have no issue with teenagers having easy access to assault rifles and other weapons of mass destruction. Tragic gun-related incidents on an almost weekly basis in the U.S. means nothing to them. They stand firmly against gun control under any circumstances. Few people have stood against them and those that did, were not successful. But this past weekend, I began to see a crack in their armour.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\">Hundreds of thousands of young people, all over the United States and even here in Canada, took to the streets on Saturday in what has been labelled the \u201cMarch for our Lives.\u201d  They were protesting mass shootings in schools across America, most recently the one in Parkland, Florida. They were demanding tougher gun laws and the basic human right to go to school without fear of dying. The crowd in Washington D.C. alone was estimated at about 800,000. If correct, it will be the largest rally ever held in the U.S Capitol, overshadowing other game-changing events there, such as the demonstration against the Vietnam War and Martin Luther King\u2019s \u201cI have a Dream\u201d March.<\/div>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>As I watched the demonstrations, I could not help but think that this too could be a game-changing event.  Watching those earnest young faces telling America to wake up when it comes to gun control was a powerful example of generational change that cannot, in the long run, be ignored. At some point, these people are going to make a difference whether the NRA likes it or not<\/p>\n<p>After watching all of this on Saturday afternoon, I was struck with how important people power actually is. It is really the only effective tool for change. And it occurred to me that people power is exactly what we need to ensure two acute-care hospitals in Muskoka.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Huntsville Council will consider a motion to ask the Provincial Government to fire the existing Board of Muskoka Algonquin Health Care (MAHC) and allow the two hospitals to revert to separate corporations. This is a Board that currently elects itself. Although Board members are from Muskoka, they do not represent the people of Muskoka, they represent the Board. In addition, there is a constant tug-of-war between Bracebridge and Huntsville members, each protecting their local turf.  MAHC has had at least three years to listen to the community and they have not done so. It is time for the community to take the hospitals back.<\/p>\n<p>The hospital issue in Muskoka has been front and centre for too long. We have had committee after committee, speeches and excuses, but no tangible results. Lately, however, there has been a light in the tunnel. People are speaking out. They did so clearly at a public meeting of the MAHC Task Force earlier this month. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/if-hospital-board-and-ceo-would-work-with-us-huntsville-mayor-scott-aitchison\/\">Mayor Scott Aitchison recently laid out a compelling case for two acute-care hospitals in Muskoka<\/a><\/span> as have other community members who have the experience to know what they are talking about. It is important to keep this momentum going.<\/p>\n<p>Is it fair to ask the Provincial Government to fire the existing MAHC Board?  Some will say no. But to me it sends a serious signal and that is our community intends to be listened to and to be heard when it come to hospital services. The only way to succeed is to stand up and be counted. That is what people power is all about.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!
