Colin Craig, Think Tank SecondStreet.org (Health Reform Now doc) Todd Longley, The Rock n' Roll Fisherman
A new documentary is being released today by Canadian think tank, SecondStreet.org, diving into the state of health care across the country. Health Reform Now will explore the waitlists of people waiting to secure the services of a family doctor, those who die while on a waitlist for care and the length of those wait times. Colin Craig, president of SecondStreet.org, joins Evan to discuss the documentary.
The CRTC has delayed implementation of its Online Streaming Act – the law that allows the government to control what you see on platforms such as YouTube, Netflix, and podcast databases – until “late 2025,” a postponement that more than likely kicks it to after the next federal election. True North's Andrew Lawton says this might be a bit of a reprieve for Canadians who want the governments hands off their content. Also, while healthcare is in the provincial domain, it's federal gatekeepers who are preventing Canadians (except those living in Quebec) from accessing healthcare choice. SecondStreet.org president Colin Craig says this is an opportunity for federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre. He joins the show to discuss. Plus, Saskatchewan's court of appeal has upheld the government's former restriction on outdoor gatherings. This comes the same week as British Columbia's Supreme Court upheld B.C.'s vaccine mandate for healthcare workers. Charter Advocates Canada litigation director Marty Moore returns to weigh in.

Seven of ten provincial premiers have called on the federal government to scrap its planned carbon tax increase, although Justin Trudeau continues to double down.

In this episode of Borderless, Vale sits down with Colin Craig, president of SecondStreet.org. SecondStreet.org is an Atlas Network partner dedicated to exploring how government policies impact the lives of everyday Canadians. Recently, they have focused on the negative side effects of Canada's single-payer healthcare system. Craig mentions that this structure leads to significant government control over patients lives in Canada and a government monopoly over healthcare services. Inefficiency is rampant, leading to poor business practices and bad outcomes for many patients.That government monopoly often leads to shortages in medical care and long waiting lists even for desperately needed procedures. Many patients suffer and some even die while waiting for life-saving care. Canadians who have the financial means often resort to seeking care in the United States or even further afield to escape the waiting lists. Craig is concerned by this reality, and he says it will continue to be a problem in the future. The sooner everyday Canadians are aware of these issues, the sooner they can find a solution.Stay in the know by following us on social media:https://twitter.com/AtlasNetworkhttps://www.instagram.com/atlasnetwork/https://www.facebook.com/atlasnetwork/Support the Atlas Network Mission Today: https://www.atlasnetwork.org/donate

I'm surprised that anyone cares so much about Christopher Luxon Christianity that he had to address it in his maiden speech last night But clearly there are people who do care, so smart move getting it out of the way and dealing with it before having what seems like an inevitable run for the leadership of the Nationals. The reason I'm surprised is because we have been electing Christian prime ministers for the longest time Bill English, who won most of the votes in 2017, is Catholic. Jim Bolger is Catholic. David Lange was a Methodist lay preacher, and probably most of them before that regularly went to church.Yes, you could argue we're a more secular society now, but we're surely not that much more secular than we were four years ago when English took 44 percent of the vote. But clearly there is a need to placate voters. Bill English did this too when he took over from John Key – he said that he was proud of being an active catholic but wouldn't drag New Zealand off into social conservatism.It's a bit of a risky move for Luxon. This could work well in terms of attracting the Christian vote, because we know there is a sizeable vote out there and the Christian aspect is important.Nearly four percent of voters held their nose and voted for the New Conservatives even though Colin Craig had been saying the weirdest things that election like suggesting he believed in chem trails.But it could also backfire. Luxon now needs to back up his promise that Christianity isn't a political agenda.A lot of the talk today has pointed that he voted against safe spaces outside abortion clinics to keep protesters away.He needs to move on fast so he doesn't become just the Christian guy, which is the very thing he's trying to avoid.
