Why the FUCK do people always say; "health care is free."
$56 dollars a month, plus Blue Cross is NOT FREE!!!!
Canada mean, because people people of come to their senses and now vote Conservative..
Slate = Liberal slush puppy.
Health care is not free, its universal.
Geeez mac, you read the article?? My point was to the ignorance of the article.
Those outside the country may wonder what the problem is; in Canada, after all, health care is free, the dollar is strong, same-sex marriage is legal, and the government had the good sense to stay out of Iraq.
in Alberta Health Care will soon be free, but anyways, It does raise a interesting point, 3 elections in 4 years, re-opening the abortion issue, and a projected deficit for the first time, I think, this century.

You should see the scathing editorial from the Guardian UK. Many people from outside, for the first time, esp in Europe where they don't care about CA politics, are begging to turn heir attention to what Canada is slowly becoming.
They rip the direction Canada has been heading in. I'll dig it up later.
If we loose this election, Party consolidation may be on the books. Who knows. NDP/Liberal ticket will be guaranteed majority for many years to come.
However there are still huge differences in ideology between the two parties. Nevertheless they are dwarfed in comparison to those of the Conservatives.

You are lucky Trit. I live in Liberal run Ontario. I pay another $170 per month for a 'health care premium' for my 'free' health care, add on what my wife pays plus our heavy tax burden means it 'aint free.
I checked this 'slate magazine' out. It's well known to be liberal and well left of centre. It's just a dig at the Tories disguised as a news article.

True.
I'd be one of the few I guess who'd welcome that Liberal/NDP ticket. For the sake of the freaking country.
Never gonna happen, ego's in both parties too dam big. We would need to break the country before they broke with their parties.

Well, until Ontario started charging premiums, a large majority of Canadians did get health care for free. Even the $56 you pay (which is odd, because everyone else in Alberta pays $44 for individuals, $88 for families), is still far cheaper than health care premuims in the US. My friend in Detroit pays over $400 a month, and my sister in-law in San Jose pays almost $1000.
You can call the Slate a Liberal slush puppy all you want, but the fact remains that Canada has changed in the past few years. The Conservatives reopened the debate on SSM after they got elected, are trying to kill the Wheat Board, did a 180 on MPs crossing the floor and taxing income trusts, etc.

But we pay one of the highest provincial tax rates in the country
