    1. @SpaceJamz YT I think the point Louise is trying to make is that Canada chronically runs large deficits, and we can’t afford what we currently spend and need to borrow more money every year to cover the costs. So, not that I’m against getting this increased spending in healthcare because the healthcare system needs some help, but I think it would be more appropriate to say that this extra $46 billion is going to come from lenders (specifically bond holders).

  1. Free education for healthcare. That’s an immediate solution. Come to think about it, wouldn’t an all free education system be a net gain?

    1. @Tone JT told injured veterans that they are asking for more than Canada can give, then turned around and helped fund a war in another country (non NATO) on a completely different continent……

    2. @Youtube music Actually that isn’t true, but helping Ukraine is helping Canada. If Russia won’t honour border with Ukraine, do you really think they will honour border with Canada?? Russia has to be stopped!!!

  2. I’m glad the provinces will have to show how the money is spent because I’m sure Ford will give it to his friends just like the green belt fiasco.

    2. I’d be watching any liberal politician because the Lefties are so corrupt it’s sickening!

      Vote Conservative!

  4. Make sure to include more security to throw out disruptive abusive freedumbers from healthcare facilities.

  5. CGTN The Point-Hub-Heat, Poverty alleviation completed 10 yrs ago in 🇨🇳. ICU beds from 4.5to 10 per 100k, Universal Pharmacare capping all costs. Hired 150k nurses & 200k doctor’s, Vocational scools seats tripled for Trades-Healthcare-Doctors etc…

    1. Unless the Liberals make some cuts to go along with this (which I highly doubt) it will come from the selling of federal bonds and increases in our deficit.
