Technically she won't even have to lie, it's all in the wording.


"we are committing to all Albertans that under no circumstances will any Albertan ever have to pay out-of-pocket to see their family doctor or to get the medical treatment they need

a UCP government, under my leadership, will not de-list any medical services or prescriptions now covered by Alberta Health Insurance. No exceptions."

You see, lets just say for arguments sake that 85% of our healthcare is publicly funded and available for all. If she changes that to 40% and the other 60% available privately at extra cost to us all..... technically that 40% is still there if you want it, don't have to pay out of pocket either..... but you may now have to wait 6 years for a specialist instead of 2. And she didn't lie, promise kept.

Future Danielle Smith: "See, I didn't say you probably would have to, I only said you didn't absolutely have to."
