FFS Canada, don't let them take your healthcare. Let the US serve as a warning. I don't know how you save yours, but you've got a lot of smart people. Figure it out before your healthcare goes in the shitter like ours.
We are forecast to elect the largest conservative majority since 1984, while all our major provinces are run by conservative governments.
Our healthcare is cooked.
Many provinces are already hamstringing it and replacing chunks with private clinics, while trying to freeze and reduce pay for healthcare workers (in Ontario that only only get reversed by the superior court).

Wow. Punishing nurses? Pushing nurses towards poverty?
These are probably the same people who won’t want to pay them on the private side either.
Chain reaction: less nurses. Less other healthcare staff. Less staff means more patients for each nurse. Which means crappier and more dangerous care.
Brilliant, these guys. Stellar long term goals too.
Health care up here is controlled at the province level. Alberta is basically Texas, in that for the last century, it's been controlled by a huge conservative majority.
If Alberta actually forces this through, I know I'm not the only one that will be looking to move.
Hey, we elected Rachel Notley once!
And she was the best premier we ever had despite what the bumper stickers on every lifted F150 would have you believe.
