The Libranos: Chew On This
Taxpayers have been billed almost $500 million just to run the Trudeau government’s Canada Dental Care Plan, with most of the money going to administration instead of patients.
Cabinet admitted in a Commons filing that as of March 31, 2025, the program’s overhead costs totaled $472.9 million, including payments to third-party administrators.
Blacklock’s Reporter said the disclosure came only after Conservative MP Dan Mazier (Riding Mountain, Man.) pressed for answers on what the program has actually cost since its inception.

Sun- Manitobans waiting for health care face costly choice
…last year in Manitoba, the median wait between referral from a family doctor to a specialist and receiving treatment was 37.9 weeks. This is substantially longer than the 10.5-week wait Manitobans experienced in 1993 when national wait time estimates were first measured.
What’s the alternative?
Unlike Canada, the majority of Swiss hospitals are private and they handled half of all hospitalizations in 2023. Patients in Switzerland are able to receive treatment in a hospital they choose, public or private. Similarly, Australian private hospitals handle the majority of non-emergency care and can serve as an alternative for Australians seeking more timely care.
Francisco- God forbid we even think of being like the unholy Swiss.

Kevin Klein- Winnipeg can’t ignore this emergency, time to copy Ottawa
Winnipeg routinely has nearly half its ambulances off the road at night. On some recent evenings, only 9 of 19 units were staffed. That’s less than half the fleet. Calls stack up in a queue while people suffer, and families wonder when help will come. These aren’t delays for a pizza delivery; these are delays for strokes, heart attacks, and trauma.
The Doctor Will Neglect You Now
Best health care system in the world, huh?
The family says he was triaged at 10 p.m., but it would be more than eight hours before he saw a doctor, despite his mother’s repeated requests for help.
“I kept worrying that they’re going to think I’m such a nuisance. And I don’t want them to think that I’d be making such a fuss, and then they ignored us more,” she told CTV News.
Keir Starmer’s Britain
Who would ever think that flying a country’s flag in that same country would ever cause a controversy?! Oh wait, in February 2022, the media and Leftist politicians & their NPCs declared the Canadian flag a hate symbol. Ignoring that, a passive protest of resistance is growing in the UK (Ununited Kingdom). Much more here.
The Doctor Will Kill You Now
The euthanasia conference was held at a Sheraton. Some 300 Canadian professionals, most of them clinicians, had arrived for the annual event. There were lunch buffets and complimentary tote bags; attendees could look forward to a Friday-night social outing, with a DJ, at an event space above Par-Tee Putt in downtown Vancouver. “The most important thing,” one doctor told me, “is the networking.”
Which is to say that it might have been any other convention in Canada. Over the past decade, practitioners of euthanasia have become as familiar as orthodontists or plastic surgeons are with the mundane rituals of lanyards and drink tickets and It’s been so long s outside the ballroom of a four-star hotel. The difference is that, 10 years ago, what many of the attendees here do for work would have been considered homicide.[…]
At the center of the world’s fastest-growing euthanasia regime is the concept of patient autonomy. Honoring a patient’s wishes is of course a core value in medicine. But here it has become paramount, allowing Canada’s MAID advocates to push for expansion in terms that brook no argument, refracted through the language of equality, access, and compassion. As Canada contends with ever-evolving claims on the right to die, the demand for euthanasia has begun to outstrip the capacity of clinicians to provide it.
There have been unintended consequences: Some Canadians who cannot afford to manage their illness have sought doctors to end their life. In certain situations, clinicians have faced impossible ethical dilemmas. At the same time, medical professionals who decided early on to reorient their career toward assisted death no longer feel compelled to tiptoe around the full, energetic extent of their devotion to MAID. Some clinicians in Canada have euthanized hundreds of patients.

In a sweeping operation that has shaken India’s medical education sector, the country’s premier investigation agency, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), has unearthed what is believed to be one of the largest medical education corruption cases in the country’s history.
The scheme allegedly involved what the agency called “egregious” acts, including bribery, criminal conspiracy, and forgery, as well as collusion.[…]
The scope of the alleged scam spans multiple states, suggesting a coordinated effort that has ramifications for over 40 institutions nationwide and undermines the integrity of medical education across India, experts said.
The NMC is a regulatory authority in India responsible for overseeing medical education, professionals, institutions, and research. It recognises medical qualifications, accredits medical colleges, registers medical practitioners, and monitors medical practices while assessing the medical infrastructure across the country.[…]
Nidhi said: “The entire scam has exposed the failure of private medical education in India. Approvals are now being auctioned like vegetables in a market. This touches everything – ethics, education, healthcare, and social work – and has completely shaken public trust.”
He added: “If you graduate unethical doctors, you breed unethical practice. You’re laying the foundation for systemic fraud. People who believed in India’s healthcare system feel utterly betrayed.”
Well, they can always drive truck.
Transgender Is A Stalking Horse For The Normalization Of Pedophilia
The “Conservative government” of Nova Scotia is chopping the dicks off teenage boys, because the pedophile adjacent might get mad if they make them stop.
Exclusive documents reveal that doctors in Nova Scotia greenlit five surgeries to create artificial vaginas for patients listed as under 19 years old. Citing privacy laws, the provincial health authority refused to reveal whether any of the patients were minors but acknowledged that Nova Scotia Health funds transgender genital surgeries for minors as of this year, “as per policy and procedures.”
Federal officials and Canadian medical organizations have long assured the public that bottom surgery, a euphemism for irreversible genital procedures like vaginoplasties, or the surgical reshaping of penis tissue into an artificial vaginal opening, are not performed on minors. However, newly released documents from Nova Scotia’s public health system show otherwise.
The Citizen’s Alliance of Nova Scotia provided True North with demographic data obtained through freedom of information requests. The data shows age breakdowns of both surgical and non-surgical gender-related interventions. The group has been requesting information from the provincial government on behalf of concerned mental health therapists fearful of professional repercussions should they be identified. The documents include internal emails, policy memos, and detailed statistical breakdowns.
The findings reveal that minors in Nova Scotia are receiving irreversible transgender medical treatments, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and in some cases, genital surgeries. The number of transgender treatments for all ages in Nova Scotia are trending upward at a time when other jurisdictions, such as the United Kingdom and several European countries, are retreating from such interventions due to mounting evidence of harm and a lack of long-term data to back claims made by transgender activists and proponents in the medical community that such procedures lower the risk of suicide.

Ministers have quietly frozen grants that are paid to universities to help them cover the higher costs of training medical workers. Critics reacted by warning that the move, which represents a real-terms cut, would “worsen an already difficult situation” in the sector and “leave us more reliant” on imported labour.

Whether the medical system is American or Canadian, there are all sorts of medical procedures whose costs are not currently borne by the state. As is typical these days, there’s never any mention of ways in which free markets could lower these costs. Instead, the implied solution is that the magical entity known as “others” should simply assume all of the burden. In other words, let’s deal with the problems of a mostly Sovietized system by fully Sovietizing the same system. What could possibly go wrong?
A growing number of retirees, like Morton, are grappling with healthcare debt due to medical bills. Medicare, which provides health insurance coverage to more than 66 million people, covers the lion’s share of the cost of medical care, but not all.
On average, a 65-year-old who left the workforce last year may need $165,000 in savings to cover out-of-pocket healthcare expenses throughout retirement.

Never interrupt the NDP when they’re making a mistake.
‘My friends, watch out for the Khalistani sympathizer in the yellow turban.’
Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Mouseland * anymore.
So let’s talk about the sad spectacle that just unfolded in Ottawa today, where interim NDP leader Don Davies—yes, Don Davies, a name you probably haven’t heard since Jagmeet Singh’s socialist train wreck finally derailed—stood in front of the Canadian press and tried to convince the country that the New Democratic Party still matters. Spoiler alert: they don’t.
This was not a press conference. It was a whimpering plea from a party that got obliterated at the ballot box, reduced to just seven seats. That’s right—seven. You could fit the entire NDP caucus into a single minivan and still have room for snacks. And yet, here’s Davies babbling about how the NDP is somehow going to hold the “balance of power” in Parliament. Delusional doesn’t even begin to cover it.
