Canadian Garbage Health Care System....Just Population of 37M and already screwed Canadians are paying way more $ taxes for Canadian Crappy Health Care System.ITS TIME TO REVIEW. We need Competition on Health Care.. I support a small % of Canadian Health Care to be Private. 1/2

2/2 We need Public/Private Health Care in Canada

So Doug Ford Wants the feds to pay for his $1B car registration fee elimination grift?

Can the media please ask the premiers to stop gaslighting us? In Ontario, ford cut health care and never accounted for billions of federal $ in pandemic relief funds. If the feds put $ into healthcare it should go directly or we will never see any benefit from it

Well if tbe premiers arent taking responsibility for their blowing Federal Covid money on the their little pet election projects....pretty simple

'Canada's premiers'? Or conservative wing nuts?

If only Canada had a serious government that wanted to make the lives of Canadians better. TrudeauMustResign

'The Feds should shut up and give us more money'- Every Premiers conference final statement since 1887

Hopefully they also discussed health care mistakes & inefficiencies...

Stop letting existing health care funds get grabbed up by non-medical parasites and you may develop some credibility.

😂😂😂🙄

The amount Ontario is asking for, is it funny that it is the exact same amount they need to build a highway in Toronto area that will save people only 15 minutes of commute time. Irony is it not.

Maybe time, not Trudeau but maybe the non-partisan employees of the Auditor General of Canada compel a full forensic audit of health spending money by all provinces in the last ten years. No proof of where money went including missing $4 billion from Ontario, no more of my money

Show me one province that has effectively managed the 💰they already had? More money won’t help if they continue to blow it on things that don’t work. I’ve asked this before - how many new VP positions have HAs created this year Why High salary positions for zero benefit.

Not an electronic penny or a nickle of money unless it it fully accounted for in health spending, not mangers pays, not contracts, all on health spending. Funny not negotiate in the media. Hahahahahah, maybe like Ford negotiate from roof tops.........such asses

Like they do?! 😳

Doug ford crying JT I derp I mean we need more moneys plz

Isn’t this a lame attempt for the premiers to negotiate through the media? No more federal funds until we learn where the “missing” money went. Someone knows.

Yeah, when the Alberta government loses track of billions...while at the same time they own stock in private clinics?

What is CBC?

Money grab,very poorly managed by provinces.

The federal gov’t should not pass on taxpayer money to the provinces without accountability to spend it on what it is intended.

Even if no funds change hands the feds and provinces need to find away to deal with healthcare issues. Every province have serious issues that are not going away.

That’s just not JT. He avoids facing people with a different opinion. His next step will be to disparage and discredit the premiers.

Get together and complain about others. The way of the world. Don’t do any work, just complain.

Provincial governments, like Ontario, can’t slash their revenues and then expect the feds to make up the shortfall.

Aren't they using the media too? And where's the accounting of all the funds used thus far? I am more interested in how Quebec has used the funds .

Trudeau does not care about Canadians. His goal is all about the great reset and controlling Canadians.

Neither the Provinces nor the Federal government actually know how to fix Healthcare. The feds have been stalling for years attempting targeted programs to no avail. The Provinces need a full blanket overhaul & are running deficits. Both are playing politics as Canadians lose.

Pots and Kettles - Best spin wins - Tale of 2 Cities

He wouldn't sit down with the truckers either. This shouldn't surprise you.

Provinces want more $ from Feds. Are they actually asking them to raise taxes while they cut taxes?

WOW! Heady stuff, that. Laugh or cry?

Hey francoislegault what about your nation supporting itself? Your platform is close to PierrePoilievre duping people into thinking you have a plan that will work….

Trudeau will say there’s no more money and Singh will support him.

fordnation Needs to account, line by line, for the Pandemic money first. Then needs to submit a business plan for how future HC Transfers will be spent. This does not include any monies to go to Privatization. Chop, chop Ford. Lets see the plan and how u track it.

I know ‘abolish the provinces’ isn’t feasible but this current crop of childish, ridiculous premiers is making that sound pretty good right now…

Maybe if they all had actual healthcare plans it would already be done, instead of them having a profit plan for them. They would take the money and then still complain nothing is working.

You actually think if the provinces get more money it will help? I do not think so they have screwed up the system with unqualified people in positions they have no right to be in.

Of course Justin negotiates through the media. The media is a powerful tool for him. It spins his BS into sugar. Horgan has nothing to lose politically & can call him out & not have to deal with Justin’s vindictiveness.

If you wonder how Autocracies can still exist; exhibit C, a Country with plenty of resources and wealth, squabbling on HOW to throw cake to its people.

We'll have whatever Quebec is having.

Does anyone know how to contact CBC News to give them a story? The website is harder to navigate than Trudeau's election promises.

So Provincial Premiers went to the media to complain about the Feds using the media? All I have seen are stories of Premiers demands in the media. They constantly “negotiate” in the media .. perhaps they need a mirror

Trudeau will just lie through his teeth.

Gaslighting 101: Prior to the pandemic Ford (& other Con Premiers) slashed funding to hospitals, health care & med salaries Provs got extra Fed funding bc of Covid Now Provs are whining that the Feds need to pay more Manufactured crisis! Restore Provincial funding to prev levels

Trudeau must go ,or will face people’s prosecution Sri Lanka style . Enough is enough 🤬🤡

Our $ until provinces prove they can manage Healthcare funds responsibly & account 4 every dollar down to the digital penny is being spent on healthcare, then maybe Canada should slap the cuffs on them. Temporarily take control till detail audits have been done for each province.

I peed myself laughing when premiers asked Federal gvt to stop negotiating threw the media and they did this threw the media. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Account for every single dollar down to the digital penny and maybe, we the provincial residents will take u seriously. Haha

Liberal govt spend money like drunken sailors when they can claim the credit. When provinces plead for healthcare funding Trudeau & company all of a sudden become responsible financial stewards. Change competition to cooperation.

🤣🤣🤣

Ontario healthcare is in an absolute MESS!!!!! No doctors, especially GPs. No nurses. Ridiculous wait times in Emergency. Ridiculous wait times for specialists and procedures. Not enough MRIs. Not enough hospital beds. Great system as long as you're not sick!

Wasteful covid spending probably a big part of that.

So it should …….. it’s because of these premiers that our healthcare is crippling fordnation hid 4.4 billion in Covid funds and cut funding from healthcare to the point that our ERs are closing because they have no staff DougFordIsDestroyingOntario FordFailedHealthCare

Leblanc really threw his liberal government into the drink - his spin doctor skills have basically collapsed. I have been waiting - impatiently - for his true colors to be shown and bingo!

We need improvements. The pandemic has taken a toll on healthcare systems. Many people were deprived of care (heart, cancer, etc) to deal with emergency. New variants are here causing a new wave of infections. ERs are full again.

If they're so upset about health dollars why didn't they just spend the covid money Ottawa sent them on health care? Seems like it was just another self inflicted excuse to complain so they can look like they care about something they absolutely don't care about.

Who wants to bet if the provinces get their federal health care funding they will back any future federal mandates.

Get big pharma out of Health Canada as a start !

The hospitals are a disaster so they better come up with a new plan. Less bureaucrats, more nurses, more hospital beds, less covid hysteria, accountability, less waiting times, etc.....

Well you would have funding if you stop cutting Healthcare. You jerkoffs. And how about Ford explains where that 4B is, that went missing before he gets a dime

With the untold billions spent on 'covid' response, yeah no doubt they'd be asking questions like 'why didn't we invest anything into hospitals'?

Premiers demand meeting with federal government to talk health-care funding | CBC NewsCanada’s premiers kicked off the second day of meetings in B.C. Tuesday by demanding a meeting with federal government representatives to come up with a new agreement on health-care funding. The premiers who collectively dropped all covid protection and now are crying that they want more money. What are they going to spend it on? None of them have a plan to stop the covid spread! Yes lets give more money to our crappy system so the bureaucrats running it can get a raise.

Premiers call for more health care funding to address staffing crisisA staffing crisis in the health care system has forced the temporary closing of emergency departments and created obstacles for Canadians accessing health services They were given billions for Covid which they never spent. They only want more funds to reduce their deficits not for healthcare spending. “Admirers” lol living up to your moniker “the mop and Paul.” Health care should be a federal responsibility.
