    Notice how they aren’t moving to Alberta. Even American doctors and nurses know how bad it is and how bad it’s going to get here.

      The rest of the country is going to benefit from this, while the average Albertan continue to shoot themselve and their family members in the foot with their endless defence of their cult leader(s). No matter what it is they do. Talking about book bans again. Book bans. You ever known of a state that benefited from a book ban?

      It’s easy to shit on the healthcare system here, but literally just using Ctrl+F in the article reveals this:

      Increased interest from American nurses was also confirmed by nursing associations in Ontario and Alberta, as well as by the nationwide Canadian Nurses Association.

        Oh man both my brain and my browser are broken, neither of us could find the mention of Alberta. But you’re right 😅
