It's up to the board of the Niagara Health System to decide whether to force its CEO to resign.

That from Premier Doug Ford who was asked yesterday if Dr. Tom Stewart should step down as head of both Niagara Health and St. Joseph's Healthcare for vacationing in the Dominican Republic over the holidays.

Ford says he made the tough call to ask for his Finance Minister's resignation for traveling south over the Christmas break, and the board's of both hospital systems will have to do the same.
