I agree
Sad to see Evan doing everything to save his precious Trudeau.
On Conservative television?
get out and vote. Trudeau 2021
@Chris Rowsell Yes if you enjoy Blackface and his corruption
@Chris Rowsell Why….just asking….
@ridingwithdavid probably can’t make the 100K+ in the private sector and he knows it
So we called an election in order to debate health care for the umpteenth time?
The conservatives do not want in anyway a 2 tiered system
You obviously arent from alberta. Already happening here.
@C C Alberta is a joke anyway
@Jumbo Me ALL CON LED PROVINCES ARE DUMB JOKS LOL
@Jumbo Me Yes, because of the party that has mostly been in charge for 40 years they are indeed a joke…Almost as if conservative policies don’t actually work
@Keatrith Amakiir your liberal math is wrong.
Let the doctor self ploy and government pays the bills. Stupid politics that putting lives in danger.
They said the same thing about Harper – it didn’t happen.
Dr Smart should request a name change to Dr Dumb.
Massive to the Unions
The 2 tiered allegations have been around for 20+ years. Same old tall tales being recycled.
We already have a two tiered system. Lots and lots of treatments cost extra out of pocket.
We do not have a 2 tiered system, yes some things are not covered but we don’t remotely have a 2 tiered system
@Keatrith Amakiir two tiered is the merger of both public and private funding requirements. That is what we have.
@juliette Irene Not even close, a merger of public and private services is how the best healthcare on the planet is run (in northern europe). What we have is not what they have, but 2-tiered is what the USA has, and you’re off your rocker if you think that is how it works in Canada.
@Keatrith Amakiir describe what a two tiered system is.
i’d rather two tier healthcare.
our healthcare system sucks anyway. “that’ll be a 24 month wait to see that specialist for 10min”. “nah no thanks. i’ll just go to the states”
move to the states you got all your money to pay for health insurance – it’s working out so well for them.
@Punk Rachmaninoff My tax portion that went towards healthcare is over 10k per year, that is how ” free” it is.
@Punk Rachmaninoff as you enjoy American made vaccines. lol
We all pay for our universal health care through our taxes and it should be equitable for all Canadians -No to the two tiered services !
@123uschie If someone wants to step out of a year long waiting list,and pay for a service, wouldn’t that benefit the rest in line?.
This is embarrassing. She represents physicians of all political stripes and shouldn’t be needlessly political. It’s unbecoming of a professional organization.
How was she political? She is talking about how a Doctor sees the Canadian Healthcare system and the different ideas and philosophies involved in restructuring it. Political parties are representing different types of Canadians and their interests. If you don’t have a hundred grand just sitting around waiting for your next surprise lifesaving surgical procedure you may not want to vote Conservative though.
She must be a liberal blah blah
@Patricia Vince YAH, SHES ACTUALLY EDUCATED AND WENT TO UNI UNLIKE THE H.S DROP OUT LOSER DUMBO CON VOTERS DERP
That’s ok. We need better options from our third-world system.
Ya it’s pathetic that Evan is doing this to save Trudeau.
I repeat the debate starts here …… in virology NON vax is base line to calculate rate of mutation …As point out it is the double vax asymptomatic that carries concentrate mutations … some reports show 10,000 times concentration of mutation virus count
Tell your Champion …your Goliath …I have new numbers out of Taiwan and am here to pull your wings off
“Private-public synergies” sounds so ominous – no, I don’t want American rich-care in Canada
politics – nothing more polarizing and viral than that.
