We've had that here in SK for years. Dr's come in from home when needed instead of doing overnight shifts that may not see anyone at all.
Just imagine how much worse it will get when the greenies manage to deal even more death blows to the petroleum industry in BC. Tax revenue from natural gas is down the past year from nearly a billion to 200 mil, granted that reflects a price decline but should also be a wake up call to those who will not accept that their modern life is irrevocably tied to tax revenues from the big boys, not the average working person.
Now i will not say that the BC liberals have been without warts, they need a serious slap upside the head, but the current vote gathering tactics of the NDP, which rely heavily on the very antis that will not compromise, does not leave me with much hope for the future.
Now we have the public service unions waiting in the wings for the NDP to give them wage hikes in return for support.
They can promise better health care all they want but it will mostly have to come from better management because the money will be in short supply. Ya like actual better management will happen with any government.
Oh, wait, we also have the occupy kiddies waiting for their agenda to be addressed. A quick phone call to the Greek finance minister may provide a cure huh?
The same is true in 100 Mile House, petros.
The BC Liberal party is dead in the water. Christie does not deserve all the blame - Gordo did more than his fair share to kill any hope that they might win another election. I don't know who I will be voting for come next spring but it sure won't be the NDP, I had more than enough of them under Glen Clark.

Ah, for fig's sake. I don't care what gov't is in power. Not one seems to want to be fiscally responsible and tend to the populace's needs at the same time. They either cater to the minorities, unions, or companies and screw the main population.
Anyway, the current trend seems to want to centralise healthcare, have a handfull of centers treating everyone, and have first-aid stations everywhere else (which makes sense considering where most people want to live). That pretty much causes grief to anyone that isn't near a major center.
Basically, that's blowing taxpayers' dough on ludicrous projects, handing off expenses to outlying areas, and overpaying the dipsticks who plan all this crap.
People don't give a crap about farming, ranching, and other healthier lifestyles. They want convenience, being fed from plastic containers, iPads, X-Boxes, and other toys, being lazy and nannied, drugs, etc. instead of healthy living, good food, healthy living, fresh air & water, etc.
Uh, apologies for the rant.
