More folks now stay in Alberta (vs shiftwork travel from other provs) and more stay to retire, meaning that the chronically undersized health care system & other social services that were subsidized by the rest of Canada, now need investment. You can’t demand immigration then yell about it.
When asked about cost of living and affordability...

Smith responded by acknowledging that "everyone is going broke" and then proceeded to blame...

Wait for it...

Immigrants.

"As of '25, Timothy Snyder will be on leave from Yale and will teach at the Univ of Toronto for '25-6. Jason Stanley and Marci Shore, profs at Yale, are moving to Toronto to teach. The Brain Drain begins.

Four health ministers.
Four agencies.
No one is clearly in charge.

We’re calling for:
✔️ A State of Emergency in ERs
✔️ A central command for accountability
✔️ An emergency debate in the legislature

That "meal" is....sigh. the comments on this thread are gold though
Brooke Rollins: "We've run over 1,000 simulations. It can cost around $3 a meal for a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. So there is a way to do this that actually will save the average American consumer money."

Please sign and share the petition below with friends, family & colleagues across #Canada!

Several provinces (esp #Alberta #Ontario) are pushing for-profit healthcare in many areas, making access dependent on one’s financial status and in direct opposition to the Canada Healthcare Act.

It would not surprise me to see a UCP plan on paying for your own health care via volunteering at a casino yearly.

I've been asked by 3 media outlets in the last week to do interviews on the influenza season.

I still haven't seen our new CMOH, appointed Dec 18th, (or old one, for that matter. Or any public health official) in the media on this topic.

For the record, they are acutally paid, to do this.

Excellent photos by Sebastian Hagan of the Monks' "Walk For Peace" yesterday as they passed through Atlanta suburbs.

The 2,300-mile pilgrimage spans 120 days, beginning in Texas and ending in DC.

Look how proud their pup, Aloka, is! Aloka was rescued from India & is already winning hearts. 🥰
