Alberta’s Shocking Move: Will It Become the 51st State?

As much as I would love to see it and believe it would be a good thing for Alberta if they joined the USA, the overwhelming majority (about 67%) are not behind it. Even if they were, there are so many hoops to jump through I just don't think its possible.
I have old friends that live in the rural area outside of Calgary and they are big backers of the movement but they believe it is at least 20 years away from being a real possibility.

Do we need more hosers?

Just strike a seperate trade deal with Alberta. That’s enough.

C'mon Alberta!
Affordable healthcare is for sissies!
-
Affordable does not equal good. You know this.
-
Nor does expensive and inefficient.
Canada's healthcare is better overall than ours.

Are you reading reddit now?

You can kill yourself or get state funded bottom surgery very quickly in Canada. I’ll give you that. Cancer screenings wait times are more of a mixed bag though.
-
The best US healthcare is better than anyone's. The best US healthcare is not available to most Americans.
Canada routinely rates much higher because it delivers better healthcare overall.
Your predictable anecdotes about some Canadian who came to the US for a procedure remain anecdotes.
-
Rates much higher according to whom and based on what criteria?
-
There are multiple surveys, all using their own criteria.
Feel free to find one that ranks the US higher. And good luck with that.
-
Orwellian efficiency always better than logical efficiency.
-
Rates much higher in libRAT controlled polls. They only know how to lie and love being lied to.
-
I wasn't talking about polls, but now that you mention it, why don't Canadians want to get rid of their healthcare system?
-
Canadians want to import the third world, pay a hefty carbon tax and like their healthcare system. Allegedly.
-
defending the USA's dogshit healthcare system to own the libs.

Now discuss your leftard response to funding the development of the chicom crud and your leftards response to Wuhan flu. Don't hurt yourself. National "health care" at its finest.

Gasbag Goalpost Move™
-
I didn't move any goal posts. I just pointed out that when leftards are involved with any big bureaucracy it well be run for the benefit of the bureaucracy employees and leftards in general. Actual performance is never the goal. Grifting is.

Uhhh….no it is not.
Its great if you want a physical for your kid to play high school sports. It is literally life threatening if you have a serious illness. I know several people who had to pay cash state side to get life saving treatment they could not get in Canada.
I always find it humorous when you see liberals claiming healthcare is better in Cuba and Canada.
-
You should start a thread if you wanna talk about Cuba.
Canada: Lower health cost, better health outcomes.
Thought you girls favored efficiency.
#DOGE?

Arguing whether Canada's or the US health care system is better is fool's gold.
How about the US just fix their bullshit healthcare system and not compare to other shitty healthcare systems out there?
Same as everything else, there's absolutely zero reason that the wealthiest country on earth can't have the best of the best in everything.
Instead trillions get grifted out to bullshit and corrupt activities.

If you compared US body weight and blood pressure issues with Canada it has nothing to do with health care. That's Bobby's whole point. Type 2 diabetes isn't a result of US health care.
-
The Shed veterans here can still remember when Gasbag would have vilified, and did vilify, anyone spouting the utter nonsense Bobby today converts to policy.
-
Violet sure hates insurance companies.

My father in law is probably 30-40 pounds overweight. He’s got medication for blood pressure or something which creates a side effect, so then he has a pill to counter that side effect which presents a new side effect and round and round we go. I think he’s on like 20 pills at this point.
This isn’t healthcare. If he chooses to keep being fat he should be paying for this shit out of his own pocket. Lose the weight first and we can talk about socializing the costs.
