Where’s the Equality?

[sumdumguy]

That’s terrible Furrow. I wonder about staff and user safety in the hospitals? What’s the answer?

[WiltonRanch]

The Sask Party has been in government for 17 years and our healthcare has gotten much worse with many rural facilities closing all the time due to a shortage of staff.

Now they think the solution is to siphon staff and resources away in more private for profit options?

Where will the extra staff come from?

They have had 17 years! It’s time for a change because these fools have made it worse.

What did the ndp do before? I agree though Sask party needs to change but I don’t want those socialist hacks.

Where will the extra staff come from?

5 million immigrants have recently came to Canada.

The nurses union said yesterday they are short 700 nurses in Sask.
Maybe we need 1000 nurses so some could be part time/on call so they didn't have to use so much overtime and traveling contract nurses to cover for the high absenteeism?

If all those people want to come to our great country, why can't we recruit high quality heath care staff?

What is the rest of the story?

[furrowtickler]

Yup flood the country with immigrants, hand out massive amounts of money to many who won’t work and wonder why there is a health care shortage then blame everyone else
sounds about right

[cropgrower]

yes how is an already stressed system suposed to handle millions of extra people

[furrowtickler]

It’s not the past 17 years that’s the problem it the last few years of massive immigration by the liberal / NDP coalition governments that’s causing a massive strain on provincial health and education systems. That and a drug / crime situation that is spiraling out of control due to insane policies from the federal government.
Then throw in the lack of actual taxpayers , the depleted middle class , to flip the bill to cover the massive shortfalls this whole situation created by the the coalition government in the first place . Then blame the provincial governments… seriously???

[furrowtickler]

This is exactly what is going on now ..

[blackpowder]

Perhaps good govt is a varying blend of many things. Maybe no political theory alone is good when it becomes a religion.

So says the farmers who also receive taxpayers money and socialist subsidies!

And some like the poultry and dairy farmers operate in a government controlled socialist supply management system that protects them from competition.

And many vote and think like they are good "free market capitalists" and then complain about subsidies and supports to the other guys?

[blackpowder]

It's either a discussion or a vendetta I suppose.
