Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

She will do nothing. She’s a liar, like all Liberals.
They did nothing when they were in power.
Unfortunately the Red Star will keep spouting their ‘promises’ and many of the idiots in this province will believe them.
Nothing can be done so long as healthcare remains in government hands.
Universities, and College of Physicians promote specialties, not family medicine. Start there. Limitation of seats, and fact that Canadian Doctors trained outside Canada can’t get a license in Canada are issues. As are desire of all Gov’s to supposedly control costs by limiting doctor billing codes.
Admin at all levels, beuracry has no such limits. Many paper handlers, and actual providers are limited.
Canada 2024, it’s about process, not the service.
Have a look at Admin, and deprtments, pretty clear really.

Same in US. Try to get into a doctor’s office without an extended wait. It turns out that the millions of migrants who poured illegally across the border had very few doctors, or even nurses, among them, and yet they all have a right to medical care, nonetheless.
“Crombie’s statement did not detail exactly how a Liberal government would lure doctors to Ontario or how much it would spend to make sure everyone in Ontario could have a family doctor by the end of her first term if she’s elected premier.”
LOL. Magic genie, no doubt.
I never wait to see my doctor (and I can email or call him ad well, and I get responses the same day). He’s a direct-care doc. But my husband has no waits for his doctors, either, including a cardiologist and neurologist. It obviously depends on where you live in the U.S.
they get what they deserve!!! good and hard!!!!!
If the waiting times have lengthened, How many Immigrants have been inserted into the Queue.
With our influx of immigrants, the Health Care wait time has gone up, the Education system is overloaded,The housing shortage has increased and prices go up.
Governments realize this and are paying attention to this but one area they do not talk about is the prison system. The existing prison system is designed to handle our existing population.
No talk of increasing the prisons in Canada. Does anyone really believe that with the influx of thousands and thousands of immigrants that their numbers don’t include criminals. Thus criminals are released into the general population as there is no room for them at the inn.
This is another indication that our governments govern with their head in the sand.
I think that the Tariffs will be the least of our problems, When Trump starts cracking down on illegal immigrants just watch where most of them immigrate to. They don’t want to be returned to Venezuela, El Salvador, India, Etc…. They will come to Canada. So health care, Schools, housing and Jails will be under more pressure.
Just sayin……
Maybe we should ask what Eric Hoskins was thinking when he eliminated 50 medical residency positions the last time the Liberals were in power?
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-cuts-50-medical-residency-places-critics-warn-of-doctor-shortage-1.3186094
How about when Dalton McGuinty decided to cut the number of new medical student spots?
It was Bob Rae in the early 1990s who started that cutback. But Hoskins is still spouting BS. Wait times for specialists have lengthened to about a year for all specialist appointments.
NS has managed to limit wait times for obstetrics to 9 months /sarc
The Red Star is not too hard on either of them, which confirms that Slug Ford is a liberal… unfortunately…
Biden warns of winter of ‘severe illness and death’ for unvaccinated due to Omicron
https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/16/politics/joe-biden-warning-winter/index.html
“I beg your pardon?”
I’ll takes me chances.
That post is 3 years old. December 2021.
See? I was right, Mr. K. ;o)
Of course. I’m still unvaccinated. And still Undead And Loving It.
All three major Parties in Ontario presided over and contributed to this cruel joke of a health care system by squandering mega billions on counterproductive horseshit.
Blubber Douggie & Co. Is pissing away our billions on EV battery plants; Dildo McGuinty and Wynne the Witch pissed away billions on solar panels and windmills; Harris let things putrify; and Fartsucker Rae burned billions on “social investments”.
yup, yup, yup, yup aaaaaand yup.
doesnt leave much hope.
[p.s.,any word on WHY the legislative habits? possibly linked to the ‘political winds’ coming from masses of HOT AIR emanating from VOTERS who put this squandering spendthrift wind chimes in just the right place to engage in their $WASTE,000,000,000,000?]
Bombie can eat a bag of dicks.
She’s a liar and a hag.
Nobody in government can solve the “health” care problem because they don’t want to.
Health system problem: demand > supply . Doctor supply only increases slowly (7+ years per doc). Solution: reduce demand, reverse migration.
What happens when you have too much government…..
Canada just needs millions more grifting, grabbing, scamming immigrants. That’s all. It makes you richer, dontcha know?
Oh, and classic white Canadians? Assisted dying for you. It’ll be the only free, rapid, no wait service you’ll get.
All a long time coming. Disarmed, fed CBS propaganda for decades. Like elderly that turned their bank account over to the lovely lefty caregiver. You’ve lost the house, caregivers driving a new Mercedes and the lawyer she hooked you up with says you signed papers.
Try to take the inevitable gracefully. One last prick in the arm and it’s over.
We just need new and better safe and effective vaccines and all will be well. Just ignore the man behind the nurse’s curtain.
… you get even more of it.
Whiz
It couldn’t be the 2020’s couldn’t
There is a company in Toronto offering all-you-can-eat basic medical services, aka family doctors, for something like $3000 a year. Which is a lot, but it does mean you don’t have to sit waiting in ER for 8 hours for basic things.
This is how things are in fact going to go. Because the OHIP system is pretty much done like dinner.
