Yes, "privacy concerns" ... I suppose that with the ease that information can be hacked, these days. it is a legitimate worry. A good portion of the population blah-blahs away on Facebook and Twitter, leaving a permanent record of their very thoughts behind them and any privacy surrendered by smarter health care cards is insignificant compared to be level of surveillance that is already probing us. I would happily trade a bit of my privacy for a more efficient health care system that is sustainable.

Do you realise that it's way too late? Your personal information is known far and wide. Even these posts are being monitored. Both the public and private sector gather or have gathered every scrap of info about your life, already. Horse left barn. 1960 is gone.
p.s. Show me the quote from the "Communist Manifesto" about having smarter health care cards.
Its about giving up you rights so that the government can better serve you, silly.
80% is pretty generous don't you think? The 20% the patient pays discourages the patient from having frivolous procedures. I realize dentist's charges are formidably high but there is so much overhead and a dentist is required to pay at very minimum 3 other salaries besides his own. Having said that, I found through years of experience, that dental insurance doesn't actually save you any money when you consider the monthly premiums, it just smooths out the payments so you don't get horrendous f**king bills periodically!
Too late, silly. Your great grandparents did that back during WWI under the War Measures Act. If anything, the Communists have failed to keep up and stay current. They want to revolutionise a world that disappeared close to a century ago.
My Dr's here in BC have full access to my EHR (electronic health records) in SK.
ON is so bloody backwards.

It covers several thousand dollars worth of prescriptions as well. Right now I pretty much break even, but it will also cover any further increases and it also gives me $ 5 million travel insurance.

I watched the speeches last night after largely ignoring the race for the last year.
By far the most impressive was Pierre Lemieux who has gone against the current and stood for traditional values, real marriage, sanctity of life from conception to natural death. He is a fluid and convincing orator who presents an integrated political vision. Brad Trost was also impressive in not capitulating to the post moral zeitgeist.
Alexander Saxton has some innovative ideas consistent with economic nationalism and Steven Blaney some that are consistent with cultural nationalism. Everyone else with the exception of Kellie Lietch was promoting some form of NEO Conservatism.
In essence, that means Free Markets and Trade, globalism and open borders, regressive taxation, government deconstruction, and, paying the most shallow lip service to Social Conservatism. Just enough to hold the demographic but with no intent of implementing any concrete policy.
What is an afterthought and expediency for the majority of the candidates is the most critical issue facing the country. Canada is in the clutches of the talons of the Culture of Death and without a sustainable moral coherence everything else, economically and socially, will fall apart. We are are facing national disintegration.
The worst of the lot is Maxine Bernier, who is expected to win, and his closest contender Andrew Scheer. These are both Stephen Harper CLONES; shills of supranational banks, corporations and agencies. Bernier seems like a major flake. Scheer a conventional Neocon, molded by the corporate Old Boys of the Conservative back rooms.
Neither of these guy has a strong enough independent identity to take advantage of the populist and nationalist rebellions that are rocking the West. Which means they might be surprised by some upstart movement that represent TRUE conservatism rather than the economic LIBERALISM and social LIBERTARIANISM that comprises NeoConservatism.
