They already do that in Ottawa. I did quit smoking there, but it was coincidental... I think...

I didn't mean to give the impression that I'm stressed. I was just responding to the topic with my own experiences. I think our current provincial government is doing their best with a bad situation. We are dealing with the lack of doctors by rolling out supposedly gold standard collaborative care, which seems like a great idea but we just don't have the money to support it properly. And as for our crown corp boondoggle, we voted out that government but we still have to pay for their stupid "legacy" project. And the high-ups on that project have already moved on to the next thing -- maybe they'll pick the least popular one to take the fall so they can check the 'accountability' checkbox.

My postal code starts with A, b'y ;) What about my comment came off as Alberta-y? In that context the tone of my post would be very different, I think! My own fault for leaving my province to the imagination :)

Some kids where I live have pediatricians. My 1 yr old son sees a public health nurse for vaccines, goes to emergency when something is wrong and i sneak him in for checkups when I have an appointment with my nurse practitioner, because pediatricians (and doctors in general) are in short supply.

$10/day daycare sounds great, unless your kid isn't already enrolled. Waitlists are mostly closed. I've called a dozen daycares at least and I'm on the waiting list for two, basically hoping for a string of cancellations.

This gap in the market has resulted in a boom of unregulated daycares in random people's houses! What could possibly go wrong with that?

Cost of electricity is going up. Not because of oil prices, but because ratepayers need to pay (and pay and pay) for a government/crown corp boondoggle. But don't worry, the people who pushed it all through can afford the rate hike, and solar panels and wind turbines and batteries to boot.

I mean, yelling at both is a perfectly reasonable option.

A-well-a don't you know about the bird?

The people you are referring to are the cannon fodder. They have been deprived of education for generations and have grown increasingly insular, priming them to become tools of a propaganda campaign with the insideous message "you've been lied to your whole life..." (which isn't wrong) "...so demand to be put back on top..." (as if these people were ever on top ) "...or burn it all to the ground." Same logic as ISIS. They've been adopted into a death cult.

I don't know if it was planned this way long ago but it's a pretty obvious outcome in retrospect.

Kids will sincerely and reasonably ask "why do the call it the UNITED States?"

Who determines the programming for Fox News?

There's a reason it's called 'programming'

A little multiple choice for deniers: Select the true statement.

A: "Climate change isn't real"

B: "It's just a warming period"

C: "We are a death cult"

Mississippi AG has no respect for rule of order, like so many powerful people in the USA. Rules are for people who can't afford to break them.
