Back in school, I wrote an essay about how two-tier healthcare would improve access for everyone.

It makes intuitive sense: create a second line and the original one gets shorter, right?

A better look at the evidence and arguments like Picard's changed my mind. 🧵
Picard’s point on AB’s new “dual practice” plan: evidence shows letting surgeons bill public & private won’t fix wait times, it likely lengthens them, drains staff from public hospitals, adds red tape, and undermines access.

A solution in search of a problem. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/70a7e73...
Allowing doctors to practise in both public and private systems solves what exactly?
What Alberta is proposing may sound good superficially, but it makes no sense in the Canadian context

During the same week that the UCP is expanding privatization, the auditor general finds that government interference cost taxpayers over $100 million.

How can anyone deny it’s the government that’s the problem?

But not impossible.

What is the "Corrupt Care" scandal?

Pete Guthrie, who left the UCP over their refusal to call a public inquiry, summed it up impressively today.

And he called out the UCP MLA's and ministers who remain silent on it.

All the more reason to recall UCP MLAs, ironically.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Today Elections Alberta requested $13.5 million to be able to administer recalls and referendum.

The UCP committee in charge revised their request to just over $1 million.

And then voted it through.

The UCP just defunded recall/referendum.

“Smith’s personal approval has gone down to 38 per cent, a six-point drop from May.

And nearly half of respondents — 47 per cent — reported that their opinion of the premier has worsened over the past six months.”

The UCP govt in Alberta is making people pre-order their covid and their flu vaccine in advance - again - for both 2026 and 2027.

They pulled this crap with the both vaccines this fall too. #ableg #abpoli
Heads up Alberta. You only get this info if you click “preorder vaccine-order vaccines.” Found out from another friend with cancer. Not great for folks at risk.

In December of 2022, the Govt of Canada offered 96,000 bottles of Australian Tylenol (the real brand) to Alberta.

It wasn’t AHS that refused.

It was the govt, saying that wouldn’t be enough.

How many bottles were actually used in hospitals?

9,000.
