BC Election

Give up! There is no evidence for any problems with the voting system in BC.

Don't make Trump bullshit lies up about BC.

The Conservatives are going to be the losers in a tight race!

You are just a bunch of sore losers!

[cropgrower]

from less than 2% of vote in 2020 to 43.5% this time is actually a huge win , things are clearly not bad enough yet in canada for that increase to be even higher

[chuckChuck]

A major gain for sure, but the BC Liberals were more or less Conservatives too.

If anything is indicative folks are craving change. Argue the semantics all you want but the reaping is in the fall air. Even here in good ol’ Sask the harvest of souls is to start tomorrow before Halloween for that matter. I shudder to think of the reds populating the majority but change is change and probably in the long run is better but the short term it sucks.

No matter who gets in where is the money going to come from that is needed to fill the bottomless pit (black hole) of healthcare? Its a beast with an insatiable appetite. Seems the more you feed it the hungrier it gets.

Hard to increase the population without increasing the demand on healthcare.

Is the irrigation expansion project actually going to pay back? Isn't there enough irrigated land that could be allocated away from commodity crops to grow specialty crops? If specialty crops are indeed the reason for irrigation expansion. Or would those funds be better allocated to healthcare and education.

Dare I say, is there any possible savings or efficiencies that could be gained by doing things different in the health and education systems? I'm not for a minute suggesting reducing their budgets but looking at ways of doing things different. What percent of the Sask budget is dedicated to education and healthcare?

Each political party can promise what ever they want, obviously some don't stand a chance at forming government. The only two real contenders can also chirp what ever tune they think the voters want to hear. But the next day after the election, who ever won has to deal with reality....

Over the last few years I have had some use of the healthcare system. Between ailing Mothers, Mother-in-law, Aunts, and family. I can say the good nurses and doctors really stand out.

Then there are the rest. They need to mandate that phones only come out on break. Just saying.

Also during covid they kept warning about the potential collapse of the Healthcare system. In our local hospital it was often empty or at 25% capacity. Hardly an over worked situation.

[chuckChuck]

So LEP are you saying there was no healthcare crisis in hospitals during the covid pandemic because your little hospital was not busy?

Health care officials would dispute that suggestion. Most hospitals were full of covid patients with alot in the ICU and many elective surgeries and procedures were delayed or cancelled.

[LEP]

I am saying there was a misallocation of resources. They needed to triage and then ship the less critical patients to the regional hospitals. The big city hospitals were the ones facing the big demand.

It was the job of your buddies the health administrators that should have made those decisions. It is also your buddies that know about the rotating sick leave that allows Nurses to rack up huge OT. But nothing is done about it.

[chuckChuck]

LEP, where is your evidence to say it was a misallocation of resources and not the overwhelming volume of covid patients and sick healthcare workers absent from work?

Who in the healthcare field said resources and the under use of rural facilities was the problem? We are waiting for your answer.

Big city hospitals have the equipment and specialists to keep severely ill patients breathing. Just like with many other services, they have centralized the more advanced care to bigger centres.

If you have a car accident, heart attack, stroke or cancer do you want to be in a small centre without all the bells and whistles of advanced health care, or do you want to be in a city hospital?

And its the Sask party and Scott Moe who is responsible for the mess we are in. Nobody else has their power to make changes.

It cost them a lot of seats.
