IT would only be a tiny percent of exclusive clinics that might say 'no' to the gov't Single Payer money, cutting them out from Billions. And any one who says yes, then has to be willing to submit to the gov't outlines re service levels and payments.

And again, if a person pays their taxes and can now get paid for health care, but instead says, 'nope, I will go pay separately again out of my disposable income' that is a win for both gov't and the citizens. It is like owning a grocery store, and getting to charge the guy in advance for groceries and him saying 'no thx, I am buying from elsewhere'. The grocery store just made free money which they can use to lower costs or improve service for those that do use them.

Uke is back to school. He is a prof and school is back in.

It's crazy this might trigger an election (hopefully) with the current state of our healthcare system.

Justin has played him well. If he votes against a reduced package that he was promised Justin will use that against him in an election

That's what happens when you make a deal with the Devil

I think he may have no choice but to settle for what he gets

Perhaps, he's also on the hot seat as NDP leader and with the rise of PP he may think Trudeau is vulnerable to not wanting to take a chance with an election.

Rant :
Tonight had a debate for the next election in Quebec .
All of them talk how to deal with inflation through tax cut or giving money to the people as if giving more money will help stop Inflation instead of feeding it even more ….

I just can’t understand why not one of them can just have the idea of simply cutting wage taxes on overtime , cut taxes on tips .

It will entice people to work more , gain better wages and increase productivity for corporations which in time should reduce Inflation by providing more supply of goods and services …

Once inflation return to normal you reinstate wages taxes on overtime shrug .

But no , they keep using same old 40 years old narrative with bad solutions ….

I just don't see how we do not head into or already there a recession

Its not only in Quebec that is what our Prime Minister is doing .We will see if it feeds inflation.

I know talking to builders here in Edmonton they are not digging any new foundations on spec homes due to the interest hikes which will not slow down. AS well many people had locked in their rate for 120 days and those rates are close to expiring so they are all scrambling to buy. Soon everyone will have to qualify at the new rates and will lose $100,000 of buying power. So if folks are not buying the demand for rentals goes up and you see rents increase

Folks like Uke and I both have mortgages coming dues at a horrible time

Also holy crap the other townhouses in my complex already lost 100k in value from peak sale to the one that just happen. I liked being rich on paper and now I'm less rich on paper I'm not sure how any of that actually affects me as I still have to pay the mortgage regardless of how much it is worth as I'm not moving anywhere.

Yeah I dropped the price on my house $50,000 and I bet I could drop it another $50,000 and it may not sell. Sellers are chasing the bottom. Everyday tons of price drops

As an economist in my country told an audience member wondering what do with his house when prices started to tumble a few years back: "You could try living in it".

Which was basically short-hand for "If you can afford the mortgage and you can live in it, the long-term prospects of the housing market are pretty much never negative".

For people stuck with with property as a short-term investment or people who get rates to the point where they can't afford it anymore, things can be far more grim.

It certainly puts the whole sub prime crazy into perspective. Those were interesting times.

To those renewing I strongly suggest to follow and bet against derps in political elections whenever possible, as doing so means you will not have a mortgage to worry about! The more they talk about Hunter's laptops the better!
