MHF Democrat Primary Poll

Public Healthcare is not free

The Average Canadian pays about $500/month in taxes to fund it.

Because there is no profit motive to drive expansion however, it's never enough and so there are shortages

It is literally half the budgets for the provinces, 50% of Canadian taxes are required to pay for it

Do most Canadians like Public Healthcare?

In America Obama types always talk about how great it is. Is that the word on the street in Canada?

It's one of our most loved institutions here in the UK. Tories like to spend less but they still base their electioneering on it. Even Brexiteers include the NHS in their lies on a bus.

I was in the National Honor Society in High School. It wasn't that beloved when I was there. You just needed like a 3.5 weighted GPA.

I bet you used to lie on the bus as well.
Only it was the short bus.

I had a buddy in high school who used to do dip on the bus. He would sometimes leave the empty cans on the ground. One time the bus driver found it and got really pissed. She said "whose is this?" He had this fat dip in his bottom lip and he was like "be cool be cool."

The only time I ever went to school on a bus was when we lived in Germany and got a lift on what everyone called the boneshakers. Even in the mid 70's these buses were ancient. Old Army vehicles painted in olive drab. We hated them and envied the swanky modern buses that the German kids went to school on.
They look kinda cool nowadays and I wouldn't say no to one.

When people convert buses in to campers what do they do with all the windows?

Canadians do prefer public healthcare, but also acknowledge that the current system is unsustainable

Canada is slowly but surely moving towards a mixed public-private alternative, as the public only option goes broke

Presumably, since you don't work anymore, it's free for you?

They still take taxes off my pension, that's the only income tax I pay

My wife pays so much tho, it works out to about $500 each

Leave them in but panel over them on the inside. Too many windows makes them too hot in the summer and you get shit loads of condensation in the winter. The old buses are better because they have windows you can open.
You don't see so many travellers in them anymore because the law changed in '97 which meant you could only drive up to 3.5 tonnes on a car license. I passed in about '85 so I have what they call a ''grandad's'' license which lets me drive up to 7.5 tonnes (roughly 16,500lbs).
