So for instance with the Conservatives: I can see them being all for upholding our universal health care system and then after winning an election, start bringing in a two-tier system.
The bogey man card.
Harper had six years to do that, why didn't he?
There were lots of indications of Harper's Conservatives covert attempts to mess with our health care system.
Whatever. Just another conspiracy rant with nothing to back it up.
you mean the same Stephen Harper who labeled Canada a, "
northern European welfare state in the worst sense of the term"... that guy, right? Wily Harper learned his lesson after seeing the public/media reaction to the Reform Party openly stating its goal to privatize healthcare. Of course one of the more visible strategy moves was to refuse to meet/participate in 1st minister meetings... cause that whole purpose of Provincial Premiers looking to work more collaboratively with each other just got in the way of his want to incrementally reduce the activity of the federal government with provinces. As that applied directly to healthcare, Harper Conservatives were all about manipulating the health-spending formula to ensure provinces received less monies under the amended formula... less monies than what the provinces determined they needed. Of course as public medicare struggled and public complaints grew, for profit private companies were primed to position as alternatives to appease public frustrations. Following the Harper Conservative playbook, tax cuts were key to reducing available federal revenue for public services outright! Really member wilber - as this board's most vocal c/Conservative apologist, its a part of the/your brand to couch the want towards health privatization in terms of, "a bogeyman & baseless conspiracy filled ranting" - yes?
