Lemme guess .... government throws up their hands ... "We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!" ...

.... I guess we'll have to privatize

More like we tried reducing funding and we are all out of ideas

More like the feds increased heathcare transfer payments by a HUGE amount in 2023 but the provinces wouldn't agree to spend ALL of the new money on healthcare ... so they can give big business tax breaks instead, then start privatizing more healthcare.

It's a never ending spiral to the bottom. :(

We've tried breaking the system worse and it's not fixing it!
