They’re late.

We already need a new full hospital. Fully staffed. We are literally a full hospital, fully staffed, short, for Calgary. It’s insane! When’s the next built, 2030?! Is anything even in the works???

And yeah, sorry Ozy, the doc / NP sitch is straight up ####ed. Amongst other health care issues. What- you’re debating this?!? Why?! How?? Your anecdote vs mine??? Nah.

Also, like, I know I am not wrong about this, so… ???????????
And think, Alberta actually has money to spend. Most other provinces are not dealing with a resource rich economy.

Even here in Manitoba the incoming NDP government shut down construction on PC approved long-term care homes because 'budget.'

Local leaders in the Lac du Bonnet area say many seniors and families are frustrated as construction of a new personal care home is in limbo. Shovels were supposed to hit the ground shortly, but the province has put a pause on the project, and it’s not the only one.

Construction on a 92-bed personal care home was supposed to start on an empty field in Lac du Bonnet, but it’s been put on hold.

"Here we are today in the 11th hour, 12th hour being told by the province we’re going to put a pause on this," said Loren Schinkel, the reeve for the rural municipality of Lac du Bonnet.

The new NDP government put the brakes on the care home, at least for now. It was one of six announced in July by the previous Progressive Conservative government.

First announced by previous to previous NDP government, then approved by previous PC government, then stopped by new NDP government. Its like a clown show.

And we think the system will change. Hilarious.
