There appears to have been a large and possibly record-setting number of temporary ER closures or service interruptions across the country in 2023 so far, with CTV News finding hundreds instances where a hospital emergency unit, usually in a rural community, has been shut down for hours or days to Canadians seeking emergency care.
Pierre will tell us we’re still over-funded and his rich friends should pay even less taxes than the pittance they’re paying now.
No, wait. Isn’t new happy t-shirt Pierre a people’s people? His ads ignore his staunch anti-people voting pattern over the 20 years he’s been a career politician and nothing else after college.
Oh yeah totally there’s a “nursing shortage”. Turns out if you treat people like shit, fight them tooth and nail to give them a pay cut in the middle of a pandemic where they’re already stressed to the max some people will leave the profession. Let’s not forget the 6%+ inflation Who would’ve thought this might happen? But then again it’s all part of the plan isn’t it

Same story in Manitoba and Alberta.
Don’t forget Saskatchewan.
Elect a clown and get a circus. Sorry man.
That Possible Solutions section is a crock of shit. The real answer is to stop “starving the beast” and fund healthcare. This isn’t real journalism. It’s a propaganda piece.
I really think it’s time for the federal government to take control of healthcare. I know it’s not a perfect solution; whenever Pollievre manages to squirm his way into power he’ll use that to do as much damage as he can, for one thing. But with healthcare as a federal responsibility, it at least puts it much more squarely under the direct scrutiny of the public and national press, and puts the blame one single part of the government. It would give us a path forward to actually seeing some kind of improvements in the system. Right now it’s far too easy for the people doing the most damage to act like the problem is someone else’s fault.
Fed control of healthcare is a baaaaad thing.
See, the cons will get power one day. On that day, the arms length separating healthcare from their meddling destruction will preserve it and keep us safe.
If there was voting reform then the Conservatives would never have a majority again and we wouldn’t have to worry about it. Even still, it’d be a lot more difficult to dismantle than one province at a time, as they are doing now.
For some reason at first glance I saw a ev charger in the picture
That’s great but not necessarily worth sharing.
