Justin Trudeau and his equally incompetent colleagues & minions have really screwed up Canada’s healthcare system:
The cost of public health insurance for the average Canadian has increased over 100 per cent since 1997, according to the Fraser Institute.We spend 11 per cent of our GDP on health care, more than 27 other comparable countries.The two pioneering 19th-century doctors — the first Black people licensed to practice medicine in Canada — were never mentioned when Persaud studied at the University of Toronto, despite their connections to the university and their long lists of accomplishments.But among advanced OECD countries, we are 31 out of 34 in acute care beds per thousand population, 26 out of 31 in medical doctors and 17 out of 32 in nurses.But there are also warning signs, about the readiness of the labour market to capitalize on clean-growth opportunities ahead.Last year, dozens of emergency rooms were closed in various parts of the country and there are inexcusable delays in processing applications for admission to the medical profession from foreign doctors and nurses.Then he was angry.We have 10 times as many health administrators as Germany although Germany has more than twice the population of Canada.“I regret not being able to chat and hear new ideas.

Every single thing this guy touches is a cluster….k right from the get-go. Now he is pretending to act like a tough as nails leader….the object was shot down on his orders. Yeah right. We probably had no idea it was even there. Dont we have any functioning military planes? Why was it the U.S. shooting it down?
Our air force cant shoot down a balloon?
Can Justin give orders to Norad? and if so, why didn’t he have the first balloon shot down when it crossing into canadian air space?
Shhhh… You’re not supposed to notice those things, JD.
I doubt it. I suspect the Americans said “We are shooting it down”. Then, out if courtesy allowed Trudueau to say he gave the order. Just the usual phony performance.
“Our air force cant shoot down a balloon?”
Distance. It was next to Alaska where the US has fighters. If a couple F18s flew out of Cold Lake they would take several hours and need to take along a refueling plane or land and refuel at least 2 or 3 times on the trip. It’s like a 5 – 6,000 km round trip.
I got lectured by a lefty on Friday. She said that health care could be fixed by giving nurses a starting wage of $100,000 a year.
She added that jobs like nursing and teaching were underpaid because they’re traditional women’s jobs…
I wanted to ask where her head had been the last quarter century, but that would have been rhetorical.
I always laugh when a picket-line captain tells the ptresstitute they need the 50% raise in order to do their job better.
Marxist/Leninist healthcare sucks because the managers hire more assistants than front line staff. The managers also tend to embezzle as was recently uncovered in a particular province.
Teachers in Ontario make around $100 000 to not teach the children anything of value. How much does your friend think they’re worth?
“We have 10 times as many health administrators as Germany although Germany has more than twice the population of Canada.”
DINGDINGDINGDINGDING!!! We have a winnah!
Twenty times more health care administrators, per capita, than Germany. And we wonder why it takes months, years even, to get a diagnosis and then further months, years even, to get treated? The layers of entrenched bureaucracy in this f’ed up health care system make me want to vomit in Technicolor!
BTW, when you talk to a nurse prior to Alberta’s upcoming provincial election, and he/she/it pisses & moans about conservatives wanting to come after health care so they’re going to vote for the Commies, be sure to clearly explain to he/she/it you want their 10 layers of bosses, not them. If we get rid of the bureaucracy, then nurses may even be able to get a wage increase…
I’ve had nurses tell me there is too much bloat in the system.
It’s their own damn fault. A simple survey of any hospital will show you that there are more nurses doing administrative jobs than front line health care. It’s tenure. The cream does not rise to the top, the useless do.
I hope they didn’t mean you, personally?
YOU are absolutely correct…..TOO MANY MANAGERS,,,,,,,,as we used to say ” Too many Chiefs not enough Indians”. but that could be construed as racist I guess like everything else these days………
Anyone still proud to be “Canadian”?
NO.
So Dear Leader will give the provinces more healthcare money, but they must comply with Dear Lead’s edict via creating a registry of all of it’s citizens? So in effect what Trudy failed to do via vaccine passports and ArriveCan he’s forcing the provinces to do, via a social credit system under the guise of “Healthcare”. If NS gives one piece of my healthcare info to the Feds without my permission there will be legal consequences. I wish I lived in Sask, or Alberta, at least they are refusing to comply. Keep in mind Trudy couldn’t get the payroll program to work, ArriveCan was a failure so was the vaccine passport but he’s found a way to hyjack our personal healthcare information to get what the Regime wants and the media are ever so quiet?
I want my money back! As a taxpayer I contributed to the healthcare system but can expect to receive no services as person who did not and will not take the clot shot. So why should the doctors and medical boards be compensated for services not rendered? It is about time for some accountability in the medical profession. Without accountability the system will never get rid of the many “professionals” who’s hippocratic oath will go out the window with the next luxury car or boat payment.
Our healthcare has grown based on what academia has provided it.. No building code exists.. These people need jobs and the government is determined to place them.. We call this growth..
How do you tell a person who has been told that institutionalized racism is the reason for all their problems. that they didn’t get the job?.. Its like asking a French government worker about bilingualism.. Always room for more but don’t complain when it ends up a big heaping hodgepodge..
Problem is healthcare is measurable and French is not seeing as most of them speak English anyway.. A shell game..
So a family member needs to have an MRI done on their foot to confirm or deny a diagnosis of plantar fasciitis. The first available appointment is April 5th which means that they can’t work because of the pain. AND to add to the complications, the rules, written in the province of Ontario by experts, specify that the bones of the foot and the ankle are not the same body part, there must be a second appointment April 12th for the ankle. So a wait of 6 weeks for two separate appointments with a week in between just because…
Yes, it is that stupid. And that is a simple diagnosis.
When talking to anyone about health care in Canada, I assume I’m talking to a lefty. I just say ‘my dogs get better health care than I do, I can get them an MRI tomorrow, until that changes, they are doing it wrong.’ End of debate every time.
In Ontario, our health system started rotting at least 30 years ago. All political parties orchestrated the present terminal decay during those last three decades.
Perhaps Canada should adopt the Cuban model … and deliver 1940’s medical care in dirty clinics ? That’d save some Loonies! Hell … you wouldn’t even need MAID if you did that
They may gave up on blood letting and lobotomy but todays healthcare isn’t any different from the snake oil salesman days of the eighteen hundreds. First link on google “Seedy profiteers trying to exploit an unsuspecting public by selling it fake cures.”. Clearly not much has changed in the last 150 years.
Yes, but we have a system.
That is all Canadians care about. The appearance. Such is their shallow mindset.
If Canadians really cared, the system would have been privatised ages ago.
