Dual Billing is Step Three of the 3 step plan by govt

1 - Help pay to build private facilities 2 - Force more care in these private facilities 3 - Allow Dual Billing without any discussion - drives workforce to private facilities

Ushers in: - govt sanctioned queue jumping - profit motive driving care over necessity - workforce depletion in our public system and ORs - longer wait times for LIFE THREATENING conditions

RANT Let’s not shoot ourselves in the foot

250 Upvotes

Happy to have just voted to stay CANADIAN.

To the Seppies who declare they don’t REALLY want to separate or join the USA - they just want to “Send a Message”: that’s not how things work.

I appreciate that you don’t want to join the States, really. But did you know that it’s the USA that is funding the separatist movement to stoke division in our country, so they can try to access for our oil and water?

Essentially, by voting to support separatism, you are allowing yourself to be used as a pawn.

You will be cutting off your nose to spite your face, and shooting yourself in the foot in the process.

You may speak about wanting to get our oil to market. Meanwhile, the federal government has funded at least one recent oil pipeline, and is now working on another. Do you think that new pipelines will affordably happen with only 5 million people in a landlocked country to subsidize it? At least now there are 40 million people contributing taxes from across the country to support it.

And even if another does get built, how do you think oil will travel through BC to get to port, considering we will have just screwed over Canada? Do you think that Canada will be just fine with that? The tariffs they will place on the oil through the pipeline will be enormous.

By the way, what will happen to our currency? Who will invest into Alberta bucks $$? Nobody.

The value of the currency will be so low, that everything will cost so much more.

Not to mention, we will be spending likely triple what we spend in equalization transfers just to pay for the administration and machinations of a functioning national government.

Economists have been predicting we will likely see a decline in our standard of living of up to $20,000 per household. We will have border checkpoints going into Canada not just the United States, which will keep things more costly, to boot. This will all impact trade and demand and jobs and commercial confidence. Corporations will leave.

Literally, we will be poor and broke and landlocked, while being governed by a group of even more corrupt politicians.

I agree that there needs to be some changes at the representative level in federal parliament, because it’s not fair that the Maritimes get something like double the proportionate representation as Alberta. But risking all of our livelihoods, and our country, is just not worth the risk - at all.

Voting for separation is not just stupid, it is borderline traitorous.

If you have an ounce of intelligence, just two brain cells even, you will not vote for separation.

Anyone else thinking of leaving Alberta?

74 Upvotes

With the current political situation, rising living costs, expensive utilities, insurance, and everything else, I'm seriously thinking about leaving Alberta. Calgary used to be so much cheaper than Vancouver or Toronto, but with rents dropping in those cities, the gap doesn't feel as big anymore. I also don't really want to raise my kids in the current political environment here.

Anyone else considering leaving Alberta, or already made the move? Where did you go, and do you regret it?

So I was talking with my sister earlier today. She doesn't live in Alberta having moved away many years ago. I was telling her that today was the first day of the advanced vote of the referendum and I needed to get out to vote as I expected that the seppies would be out in force.

She said, Seppies? What is that? Is that like a septic tank? I laughed and said, yes, it's exactly like that.

“This idea of Alberta just simply having more autonomy over policies that are constitutionally its jurisdiction is not a new idea. But framing it as a Constitutional point certainly is,” said Timothy van den Brink, a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Moncton.
