      Healthcare is provincial.

      “American wanna be MAGA hicks once again get fucked by their voting decisions”

      Incredible how everything immediately gets blamed on Ottawa when Albertans score an own goal.

        Implementation of healthcare is provincial. It is still required to obey the Canada Health Act. Smith and her fascist government are wildly ignoring it, and the federal Liberals are…doing nothing. Signing MOUs on pipelines.

        Make no mistake - the at-fault party here is 100% the UCP under Smith (and Kenney before that - never forget that Kenney was instrumental in fucking over Alberta); but the feds have a clear legal responsibility that they’re ignoring. My Liberal MP is spending all of his energy decrying Alberta separatism, without actually acknowledging what his government should be doing about it. (In fact, he’s as completely inaccessible as the Conservative MP before him ever was. In other words, they both fucking suck.)

        Provincial, pulling from federal funding with rules that explicitly prohibit privatization, but sure. Let’s just ignore the facts.
