I have information on Liberty Mutual's acquisition of non-profit Ontario Blue Cross, on Sun Healthcare Group Inc's acquisition of Columbia Healthcare (a for-profit rehab company based in Toronto), and quite a lot of information on what is quaintly referred to as the "cultural integration" of public acute care facilities with US-based multinationals. It will take a few days to put it all together. I am writing a book for the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives on health care privatization in Canada, and the information is being collected for that purpose. When do you need it? And who are you?
