@yegwave She supports AB separatists so why is she commenting on the order of Canada?

@Keepershiny @sarobertsonca @Arturmaks Federal govt does not administer health care in Canada, which you should know if you live in Canada.

@echipiuk In Canada, healthcare is administered by the provincial government which is this case is the UCP. This provincial government has underfunded and tinkered with the healthcare system and this is just one of many disastrous and heartbreaking outcomes.

A man died in an Edmonton hospital while waiting for emergency care, begging for help that never came. That is not a policy failure in the abstract. It is a human tragedy, and it should outrage every Canadian.
No one can tell me that Canada is not broken, or dismiss this by saying “it’s worse somewhere else.” That kind of deflection is a moral failure in itself. We do not measure our standards by the lowest bar. We measure them by whether people are treated with dignity and whether lives are protected.
No amount of rhetoric about “free public health care” justifies negligence, indifference, or disregard for human life. A system funded by the public purse exists for one purpose: to help people when they are most vulnerable. When it fails at that most basic duty, the moral cost is unacceptable.
What is most disturbing is the absence of accountability. In our public system, no one appears to be responsible, no consequences, no urgency, no ownership. When systems are run by layers of unaccountable management, frontline failure becomes normalized and human suffering becomes invisible.
Public services cannot mean unanswerable services. If we are going to fund essential services collectively, they must be competently managed, rigorously overseen, and relentlessly focused on the people they are meant to serve. Anything less is not compassion it is negligence dressed up as policy.
These are egregious and unconscionable failures that should never be accepted as normal, just or acceptable, yet they happen time and time again. So the question is simple: how many more people must be ignored, dismissed, or lost before we demand real accountability from the systems that exist to serve us?

A 44-year-old Edmonton man has died, leaving behind his wife and three children, after reportedly waiting more than eight hours at the Grey Nuns Hospital while experiencing persistent chest pain. While waiting, he allegedly reported blurred vision and had a blood pressure reading of 210, and was reportedly given only Tylenol.

Albertans are tired of the last 10 years of the federal government’s unsustainable immigration policies putting huge burdens on our education, healthcare, and housing sectors.
It’s time we start having a hard conversation about exercising more control over immigration policy and whether the province should limit eligibility for social services only to citizens, permanent residents, and individuals with an immigration permit granted by the Alberta government.

@CanadianModera1 @JeffreyRWRath 100% agree
If that’s what their platform is they need to seek a mandate from the people they supposedly work for
English

@JeffreyRWRath If this is the case, the UCP should call an election right now and run on an Alberta independence platform.
In reality, they don't have the guts.

1 year ago today we sounded the alarm. Now, the Liberal Party is trying to make it a criminal offense to read or share parts of the Bible.
Jamil Jivani@jamiljivani
I'm sounding the alarm. We must protect Christians in Canada from governments and corporations abusing their power in our country, and from anti-Christian bigotry. I'll present this petition in Ottawa in the new year. Sign and share if you agree: protectchristianscanada.com

@gilmcgowan Correction: the desire for you to leave Alberta @ABDanielleSmith has never been higher

Let’s talk about an Alberta Pension Plan for a minute.
With our young Alberta workforce paying billions more into the CPP each year than our seniors get back in benefits, it’s time to ask whether we stay with the status quo or create our own Alberta Pension Plan that would guarantee as good or better benefits for seniors and lower premiums for workers.
I want to hear your perspective on this idea and please check out the video.
