    Smith is such a vile piece of shit. Alberta is an embarrassment for voting this scumbag into office, and they’re also probably gonna ensure PP gets a seat again.

    The right is a fucking cancer on society.

    I don’t have a problem with paying a premium for necessary painkillers, but

    Only a fraction of the medicine, most of which arrived after the shortage had eased, was ever distributed to hospitals and pharmacies. In May of 2023, health officials ordered staff to stop using the imported acetaminophen in neonatal intensive care units after deeming it a risk to patients when administered through feeding tubes. Within two months, there was a hospital-wide transition back to using standard children’s medications.

    Paying a premium for painkillers that could not be administered, and did not arrive on time is nonsensical.

    And that’s before we get to the allegations of corruption.

    Hey everyone! Let’s talk more about separation, which totally isn’t a distraction from failures of governance like this!

    Please! For the sake of Danielle Smiths career, talk about anything but this!
