This is exactly the type of thing you WANT the govt to stop. It is very telling that they don’t criticize it, let alone try to shut it down (that would offend the freedumb gang). The freedumbers can say whatever they want about public health care challenges, but outright fraud isn’t one of them.

I have no idea what the govt’s rationale is for this. They hate public health care, but it is OK to be scammed privately?
A bit of critical thinking tells you that if if a legit successful treatment was developed for ALS, the developer would be very wealthy - and not operating out of Moose Jaw.

This woman's story is so awful I cannot even read to the end. And seeing Dan Florizone say this clinic shouldn't even be operational here makes my blood boil.
Would you want your mother to die like this? Broke, unable to feed, in pain, terrified and alone in another country?
Unconscionable. Moe.

When Mark Carney sets specific goals for Canada to "diversify away" from its reliance on the US—making headlines in Canada but not the US—hear that for what it is: Close partners and allies looking elsewhere for better friends.
This is the silent way that the US loses its pointless trade war.

Accidentally my rosey pink arse.
DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces.
Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.
Yet another example of total incompetence.
