    Bayfm had a young visitor last week who could give some valuable advice to our politicians. 12 year old Brandon Best is from Corner Brook wanted to know what a radio station looked like. He showed up sporting a fresh cast on his arm and tells us he waited for 12 hours at the hospital and was not seen. The cast was put on the next day. Best says were so many people waiting to be seen and some were on beds. He says it’s not the staff, it’s the fact there are not enough staff. Best says it’s time for politicians to make this change and be a leader. Best likes to spend time at basketball, soccer and ball hockey.
