I guess it depends on province but I heard you have high inflation over there. How is it affecting the average person over there?

You no longer have public health care?

Oh no, we certainly do, but the provincial government is taking steps to try and introduce/bolster a private healthcare market that threatens to reduce access to the public healthcare sector. Lots of cutbacks and legislation has been slowly depleting the publicly funded healthcare in the province, reducing faith in the system, and that’s being used as a means to push a private sector to fix the broken system. It certainly wasn’t perfect before, but it’s pretty transparent what the current provincial government is doing as they have a lot of industry interests.

This is a unified attack too. I live in Alberta, and they are doing the exact same thing here.
