I had the same problem. I changed the p/s pump (oh what fun) and it still squealed. Then I discovered that when the gasoline level was low, the pump in the tank made the squealing sound because turning would slosh the gas over to one side, and the pump would be sucking air. That's why it squealed. this may be due by either a loose acessory belt,or a malfunctioning Power Steering pump.(pulley)

What would cause a high-pitched squealing noise when you turn the wheel to the left?

The most likely cause is the belt on the power steering pump. This is especially likely if this occurs when the car is not moving and you turn the wheel. The load on the pump is causing the belt to slip, and squeal. Adjust the belt. If it persists you may need to replace it.
