What's more depressing than American healthcare?

Canadian conservatives replacing theirs with the American system without a fight.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 41 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's pathetic. We are willing choosing to let it go, despite being such a huge advantage of being Canadian

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 12 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Wait are you guys going down the shitter too? Illegally migrating to canada has always been my backup plan

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 23 points 10 months ago

Oh yeah, we are. Pierre says privatization is cool, and like morons, the majority of Canada believes that this rendition of trickle down economics won't line the pockets of the rich

[–] _____@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago

the entire conservative agenda is to dismantle universal healthcare from the inside to prove that "it doesn't work, we should privatize it"

Someone didn't hear about the convoys

I hear this a lot but where is it happening? Definitely not in the discussion in NS.

Dont get me wrong, fuck the PCs but I havent seen any real evidence of replacing our public medical system.

It's not "our" it's per province. Alberta in my case.

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It's the provinces with an outrageously wealthy upper class. BC, ~~Calgary~~ Alberta, and Ontario are chock full of rich conservatives that want to replicate the American system in Canada so that they can rival their American peers.
