The federal government needs to step in and enforce the Canada Health Act.
Universal Healthcare means one high-quality system for everyone, regardless of income.
Two-tier means two systems: faster care for people who can pay, slower (and less accessible) care for those who can't.
Danielle Smith effectively switched Alberta to Two-Tier yesterday.

Americans are paying 11% more for electricity than they were at the beginning on this year.
And these rising electricity prices means more people are unable to pay, so more people are getting their power shutoff.
