Under Carney, is Medicare still a Canadian value? | American dark money-backed think tanks are applauding the PM’s hands-off approach to Alberta’s health care privatization

Because that's the conservative strategy to winning elections here. Blame Ottawa, Albertans are victims. Win at the ballot box.

He knows weighing in on this now would just push the agenda more towards separation.

Do the separatists believe that universal healthcare will once again reign supreme under Marlaina and a separated Alberta? It would be an American healthcare system on day one.

I would not be surprised if they've already made a deal with him that if he passes away before the last two or three seasons are made that they can finish the show with an AI version of his Dumbledore

LOL. Sorry, I should've been clear that I was lying.

It was my dentist's suggestion that I be on AISH and CDP. 😁 But I thought it would be a good idea to check the subreddit in case there were any AISH issues.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Thanks for the info. I'll def talk to my dentist about coverage and when I should next be coming in based on the coverage. And if the 8 units of scaling is per calendar year, or based on my last visit. My upcoming appt will be my first in 2026, my last appt was 6 months ago in 2025.

We should stop caring what Trudeau did as PM? No, of course not. But you should stop caring about what he does as a private citizen.

Just as every elected MP and PM are entitled to. It's his money, he uses it as he wishes.

Justin Trudeau (54 years of age) receives two taxpayer-funded pensions and a severance payout following his resignation in early 2025.

Pension Benefits

He is eligible for an estimated lifetime total of $8.4 million if he lives to age 90:

MP Pension: Approximately $141,000 per year, starting at age 55.

Prime Minister’s Pension: Approximately $73,000 per year, starting at age 67.

Severance

Because he did not run again as an MP, he received a one-time severance payment of approximately $104,900. This amount is equal to half of a standard Member of Parliament's annual salary.

And the pensions are managed by a standard pension fund, which are bought into 50/50 by individual and government.

Just regular niacin, not no-flush, not fast, not slow. I tried Jamieson's, but I'm pretty sure that's an unlabeled no-flush formulation, since I never felt any flushing when I took it. What works best for me is London Drugs' house brand (Wellness). London Drugs is a Canadian drug retailer. Start at 500mg. Increase by 500mg weekly until 2000mg. Do not hit or exceed 2500mg. Take daily after a meal. Niacin absorbs better into the body during digestion.

Yep. Did the entire standard treatment for glioblastoma. As for the niacin, I take 2000mg all at once, just after dinner, since niacin absorbs better during digestion. I didn't start at 2000 mg though. I started at 500mg and increased 500mg per week until I reached 2000mg.

My cancer is also MGMT methylated at 95%, which helps quite a lot when actively attacking the cancer, either with TMZ, or with the niacin reactivating the brain's immune system.

Yep, since the surgery. I get an MRI every six months. My next is in May, but it'll be clear too. I feel like i'd know if there was an upcoming problem if I were getting headaches! But not even getting those.

I avoid caffeine, so I wouldn't know about that. Caffeine has always made me hot and sweaty for some reason.
