To state the obvious, don't let profit parasites ruin your healthcare system Canada. Down South we live in hell. Our way of doing thing's is a cruel joke. Fuck those greedy bastard's.
We know. We have our own collection of stupid-fuckwad conservatives here that would shoot themselves in the leg if PP made a YouTube video asking them to.
I live in Alberta
Sometimes I want to sob
Experiencing the very purposeful breaking of the system by the current government, right this moment. …so their buddies and their interests can cash in BIG.
I’m gobsmacked, to be directed to private health care for better services that are waaay faster.
I’m more gobsmacked to find people complaining about this, while simultaneously STILL SUPPORTING the current government.
Faith in society, humanity? At an all time low.
There is not current situation so bad it can't be made 10 times worse by swapping a minority red beholden to the oranges for a blue that will privatize in record time.
Unless and until the voting system changes and we can vote without fear of losing everything, then it's a binary choice between two big parties in the hopes of getting a minority red with an orange driver again.
This is the perspective of the informed!
Singh should come back and run for premiere in Ontario. Instead of trying to get some nice soundbites and some sharp jabs in, why don't we take a look at one of the places that's in dire need of literally anybody. Ford won by default, with less than 27% voter turnout. Singh doesn't have enough support to win federally, but he could make a decent impact in Ontario if he really wanted.
Sometimes I think of trying to get into the NDP to run in Ontario. There's literally no options for governance. Andrea Horwath comes off as your 5th grade teacher telling you that you've been naughty. I don't even have a fucking clue who the Liberals are running, because they have zero leadership. Did they replace Del Duca? Who knows.
Nine months to see a dermatologist. Its disgusting
If it's bad, don't make it worse by privatizing it.
