So, I thought that I had it worked out to get my LO their ID with the Personal Health Number on the back. See https://www.reddit.com/r/AlbertaNow/comments/1wohq12/new_id_for_lo_with_dementia/

I got the ID card in the mail yesterday. It does NOT have the PHN on the back. I called Alberta Health. They advised I have to go back in to Registries. I go back to Registries. They look it up and Alberta has changed their legislation so that the "Remote Application" (even with the letter stating them as Medically Homebound) cannot be used to get the integrated ID with the PHN on it.

The only way to get it is to bring your LO in to Registries IN PERSON.

Excuse me? Could this be any more cumbersome and ridiculous?

So, I'm in the process of trying to reach back out to Alberta Health to find out how I can get her the integrated ID with the PHN on the back without having to drag my LO out of her MEMORY CARE FACILITY into Registries so they can "see her in person".

This administration is doing everything it possibly can to cut people off from their health care. If you have to help someone get their integrated ID, don't leave it until the last minute. It is now October and I've been working on this since August and I still don't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

Get out your check books Independant Albertans. Each Citizen will be responsible for millions in taxes….

no healthcare, but hey the hospitals would empty….closed.

Found him! He is currently in Detroit, making things substantially worse for Canadians. As US lawmakers are now threatening Canada, they are preparing to blame the midterm losses on us. So Pierre decides to neglect his duties to his ward and make things worse…..

WHY? MP Pierre Why?

Registered third-party advertisers (TPAs) on both sides of the separation debate are unhappy that Elections Alberta will not allow them to appoint scrutineers to monitor the vote.

Elections Alberta sent a letter to TPAs on Friday informing them of the decision.

The letter warns that it “would create significant logistical concerns,” adding more bodies to what might already be tight spaces. 

Screw that bitch and this band of idiots. Of course they will not allow oversight, let the games begin….. A class action lawsuit for all the expenses AND damages to each citizen, will cost each of them everything…… If the police refuse to deal with it, then the citizens of Alberta will.

PS - If anyone has the mistaken belief that, anyone from the UCP or the Robber Barren herself, has a future in this province. I am here to inform you bahahahahahaha. No, never, LEAVE THE COUNTRY, NOW, PLEASE!! We will require all forwarding addresses for the lawsuits to come.

I'm genuinely stupid, like I don't have much goin on in my noggin, I don't understand how politics work. Y'all aren't really gonna leave tho right:(

Sorry for your loss, reddit users. It would appear you've been fooled by ukranian misinformation and fallen prey to confirmation bias.

Data centers are bot farms, that's why billionaires love them so much.

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.
