Regardless of what happens in Alberta I'll bet Danielle Smith will walk away from it all with a considerable amount of personal holdings.

If y'all's up there to decide to copy the US, joke's on you? I mean not really, corruption is a motherfucker, but also wow the US is a perfect example how why private health care kills.
And is actually the opposite of health care.
Canada needs a Luigi
The ultimate goal of Bill 11 is the creation of a private, for-profit fast lane for what should be publicly insured care—and a slower, public lane for those who can’t afford to pay.
Let me guess, the majority of Albetans feel they'll be the ones who can afford to pay?
We have to stop these ghouls from wrecking our society, I fucking hate all these greedy motherfuckers
This is the easiest campaign in history. Simple 15-second ad:
“Look at what American’s pay for healthcare, and look at what they get for it. You really think that’s better?”
How is it not obvious that either 1: they are rigging shit and simply not allowing us to actually win and/or 2: people are actually too fucking stupid to understand that FOR PROFIT ANYTHING will cost more money.
Like it has to be 1 because i refuse to believe everyone is this fucking stupid. We are past the ballot box.
It sadly doesn't matter. Smith could slaughter a school bus full of infants on live TV and she would still win the next election.
Conservatives, both Canadian and American, operate in a post-truth mindset where facts no longer matter. Their manufactured hatred for "the other side" will drive them to act entirely against their own interests and wellbeing entirely out of fear or just to spite their perceived foes. This is further amplified by the conservative tradition of attacking education and free press so people can't even learn the truth if they wanted it.
We can see it very clearly with the MAGA cult in the US. They are in so deep that the only way they will ever get their heads out of their ass is to lose everything they've ever held dear and even then it might not be enough.
They need to be what gets lost.
We need to bring the consequences to them. If these elections are not being cheated, then democracy is failing. Our choice is, we accept it and become the victims in a world of stupid brutes or we do what’s right for the future of whoever had children.
Living in their future is worse than death and death is coming regardless. The choice is clear.
I know. Fuck this world, but I know.
This is incredible.
BTW, Sun Life is also already in on the Canada Dental Plan. They run it, not the fed gov't.
Disallowance, Mr. Carney.
I thought you guys didnt want to be americans? Make up your minds please.
We don't. But the corporate shirtheads do 🤷
So you see how it happened to Americans, and when it happens to you enjoy the Europeans talking shit and doing nothing while it happens to them, too.
And it will because these people aren’t afraid of any of your votes.
Oh. Well i do think you guys are right. Sucks here. I recommend guillotining some fucking capitalist scum so they know they cant get away with that shit up there.
A lot of the corporate shitheads in Alberta work for US companies. They should all be put on a bus and sent to Cotes and told to not look back.
