“Last year the province administered 750,000 doses — largely to people over 50 years of age. This year the province has ordered only 485,000 doses, a 30 per cent reduction. That means a quarter of the population, again mostly the elderly, that wants the vaccine will not find it available.”

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, who revived her ailing political career by peddling conspiratorial COVID theories, has designed a program that is not only punitive but discriminatory, bureaucratic and Soviet in nature, writes Andrew Nikiforuk.

Some good things are happening in rural Alberta and this is one of them. Last night’s coal town hall in Fort MacLeod drew many impassioned voices and this was one of them. Bringing the science to an evidence-adverse government. 👏🏼 👏🏼

Ontario, do you have $4,995? That's how much it cost to join a private family HC clinic in Toronto. “This isn’t about just one doctor and thousands of patients abandoned. It’s about the erosion of our healthcare system,” courtesy Doug Ford & Sylvia Jones. #cdnpoli

Protect Canada’s publicly funded health care.

Private business is interested in protecting their profits not in protecting our health.

We do not want American style healthcare with American style personal bankruptcy from outrageous medical bills.

Private cataract surgeries bill taxpayers $1200 per surgery vs $500 for public hospitals.

They also coerce seniors into paying thousands out of pocket in violation of the Canada Health Act.

Ford is expanding them.

But the men who criticize it aren’t? Is that what he’s saying? What? What new dumbfuckery is this now?
I promise that as a woman I am not antisemitic - I am anti genocide, anti ethnic cleansing, anti holocaust, anti killing of civilians, anti fascist. And apparently anti Chris Sununu now.
