I said yes.. my Health Care was $360/mo, it went up to $1,200USD/mo. ($1,500CAD) ;)

Plus my co-payment of $25 for a doctor visit, $50 for urgent care and $100 for Emergency.

All I am saying is that Alberta charged $80/mo per single person. They should bump that to $100/mo plus a Co-Payment.

This will get Alberta's budget under control..

Why are people here so offended to pay a FAIR insurance payment, like your car or home for your health coverage.

I won't pay Obama's tax rates... it's stupid. I didn't mind $360/month.. but triple it, I was lucky to be a dual citizen. Screw Obama..



What a Liberal wishy washy person you are..

I just went to the doctor for an eye infection. Didn't have a co-pay. Bought some eye drops. My eye is better.
Priceless.
I'd rather be wishy washy then bankrupt.

$2.21 and rising.

WTI settles at $51.43/barrel, highest levels since March 4 ... Oil prices are up $2 today. ... Any reason the speculators will find to spike the price of oil up a bit they will use to...

from 2001 when I moved to Alberta to when the premiums were stopped, not once were they taken off my pay cheque. At no time were they ever acted upon as if they were a "payroll" tax. We received a quarterly invoice which we paid. So, no, you run along. Just because prentice wants to call it a "payroll tax" to make HIS idea look better does not mean it was. The fact that you don't know how the premiums were paid makes it look even more like your detractors are correct concerning your "employment" status.

Looks like you disagree with the premier.

Wow, no decrease in expenditures you say?.. I never realized that you were in cahoots with the prov finance minister.

PS - Is 'Common Sense' the name of your meth dealer?




You were responding to one those folks that are 'entitled' to everything,, They often mistakenly believe that the healthcare system is free and there is no private elements whatsoever... A real socialist utopia it is
Yes Our great free 50 % taxed Canadian tax care system .

Actually they needed a government to manage the financial affairs of the people
not the corporations. The chickens are coming home to roost because the folks
in power didn't plan for the future.
No instead they want a pipeline to Texas where the jobs benefit someone else
and they subsidize the price going south.
Had they managed the money better they wouldn't need to start charging.
Saskatchewan planned much better in the past and are benefiting from what they
did they have a better system of health care. We also need a prescription drug
plan nationally but that will have to wait for a few years yet
How are we going to pay for all that without a pipeline to Texas ?

I want an efficient, well run system. I could give a rip who's in control. I guess that's the difference between us. I'm much more goal focused.




No you didn't.




Since that isn't going to happen, hopefully you and your socialistic needs will be ****ing off down south sooner rather than later




If you had a clue, you would realize that the 80/month premium was insignificant.




...because Canadians don't want to. Why do people always want to come to this country and change it?



Cut government spending before you raise taxes would be a great place to start. I know socialist like you have a problem with that. I don't really care.
Yup the same things that most of those you belittle want .
\The question is how do we find and control that monster ?


A serious YIKES

You are a nasty jackhole.
The only thing this type of co-pay will stop is sick people getting care.
What single mother has $50 to take their kid with 104 fever to emergency.
You are a heartless bastard. So are the politicians that want this.
Get back to your dream land that already has this punitive system.
You've raved on about how great the US of A is, why don't you get back to your political nirvana.
Or are you a mouth shooting hypocrite?
Why are you angry ?
Is your way the right way and the only way ?




Yikes .
