That's the problem with grassroots. The grass is always greener when you're on the other side of the fence. From 2022 when she encouraged "grassroots". Weren't the "recall" and "referendum initiative" legislations meant to give the grassroots a more direct say in governing.

Soup? Haven't seen the contents menu of an IMP in a long time.

I don't see the connection to the specific issue of physician reimbursement I was discussing. A worker from Nova Scotia goes to a walk-in clinic in Fort Mac and sees Dr. Sawbones; the worker (not being resident in AB) doesn't have an AHCIP card so he shows his MSI Health Card. The clinic...

To keep it specifically to the issue about doctor reimbursement I discussed in my previous post - if the folks working in Alberta but retaining residency in another jurisdiction seek medical services, they would have the health insurance card/number as well as ID from the other province. Bills...

One of my concerns is was not that patients/clients would or would not be turned away by hospitals but that when we submitted bills for the services provided by the doctors who worked in our clinics that they would be paid by AHCIP. If a patient provided a non-active AHCIP number we only were...

Other than my objection on principle to the current government's move to scrap the (crappy) paper health card in favour of a "digital card" or to have it added to the driver's licence, the ones most at risk of losing (even temporarily) will be those at the edges of society. They will not always...

Possibly. But how many (such as this latest author to be de-indianized) base their tenuous grasp of aboriginal heritage on vague oral history from family who got it from even older vague oral history? I'm a Newfoundlander. I know this and can prove it because I have a birth certificate that...

What I've seen indicated that it was a combination of supply chain issues as well as reports of hyperthermia (overheating) associated with its use. One of the practicing PAs might have a better idea. I haven't used scopolamine in decades (never personally - motion sickness was never a problem)...

No longer familiar with the military formulary, but if the patch of choice was Scopolamine (i.e., Transderm V) the reason would be because it's no longer available in Canada.

Sleep walker? :sleep:

Rain soaked hikers? Why such an extraneous description? It's BC. Everything is rain soaked.

Actually, the Alberta Elections Act does permit a candidate (not just the winning candidate) to examine (and to receive a copy of) the voting record for the electoral district in which he ran. The voting record will indicate who voted and thus one can determine who didn't vote. However the Act...

Since he's Navy, shouldn't it be "floating an idea"? Or "sending up a trial balloon" if air force?

Yes, they can. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_representatives_who_switched_parties https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_senators_who_switched_parties And probably the most publicized example in recent years. House Democrat To Switch Parties Over Impeachment...

But if they let everyone wear the smock, the SSF wouldn't have been "Special".

Yes, there is. They are predominantly used by or the membership is largely Danish citizens/residents. Danish persons (especially those born and educated/socialized in Denmark) have remarkedly similar life experience and attitudes.

I suppose I could have used AI to find the most appropriate thread to include this . . . can AI generate sarcasm? This piece caught my attention. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-ai-bot-doctors-meeting-patient-info-hospital-privacy-watchdog/ There have probably been dozen of...
