Can't you take your discussions about that aborted fetus "The Last Jedi" to another thread.

This looks better than that pile of dung.

You don't believe that 35%-45% of the provincial budget is a problem? Some boomers are only 55. Give this another 10-20 years.

How much of the budget would it take for you to consider it a finance problem?

Listen I'm not saying that you couldn't put a huge dent in Carbon emissions.

What I'm telling you is that some activities require energy density that renewables just can't provide it. It's not a problem of will, it's a problem of physics.

Do you really think solar panels are going to power a rocket into space?

Why does it not surprise me that Kotaku is losing their shit over this...

It won't be possible to go 100% carbon neutral in the forseeable future because of energy density.

Any tasks that require high energy density(mining, space, etc) will require high energy density sources.

So a smart Prime Minister of Canada saw the impending disaster of health care. He knew that with the aging boomers, health care costs would become unsustainable so he offloaded the cost to the provinces, who took some short term gains in return.

Fast forward to today. The provinces spend any where from 35% to 45% of their total budgets on health care. This is only going to get worse as the boomer generation ages and becomes a strain on the system.

How does this effect the quality of health care. Today procedures like MRI's can take up to 9 months to get done. Which means many are forced to pay for them privately. Yes Canada has many private clinics(kind of like mini hospitals.)

You can also sometimes wait in the ER for eight or more hours to see a doctor.

Almost all Canadian public hospitals are overcrowded. It's not uncommon to see patients in the hallway, where they wait for other patients to check out.

The Canadian health care system is a looming disaster that is going to require Canadians to make some serious choices.

Lol. I take it that you have never been to a Canadian hospital?

Wynne did a number on Ontario financially, though she was just one in a string of bad premiers.

Rachael Notley is trying to out do her in Alberta though. In 3 and half years she has taken Alberta debt from $12 billion to just under $50 billion.

True. He puts most western politicians to shame and has a sense of humor.

That's just the Federal Carbon tax. You better believe provincial governments are getting in on it too.
