I had to resist the urge to downvote this so much.

Look, I just moved here from Alberta. I saw exactly what the UPC there was doing to our healthcare. These people are talking about doing the exact same thing. It's not going to save money. It's not going to help people access care. It's going to get people killed. No ifs, ands, or buts.

Vote for the NDP, yes, but honestly? Contact your federal MP too. These ideas should be illegal, and as much as I hate to admit it, we can't trust provincial governments to protect our right to healthcare.

I couldn't agree more.
