Tim Houston promised to fix Nova Scotia's health-care system in his first term.

Three years later , Houston has called an election for Nov. 26 knowing the contest could be a referendum on that lofty pledge.

Government data show the Tories made some progress during their first term, but fell far short of repairing a system beset by shortages of doctors and nurses.

The Tory government spent $ 158,000 to distribute 480,000 pamphlets across Nova Scotia describing its latest health-care initiatives.

The publication boasts about the province hiring 300 doctors and specialists, as well as 2,000 nurses.

The government pamphlet also points to initiatives aimed at establishing a medical school in Cape Breton .
