    These Drs. were told 2 weeks ago that the wallet is empty for health care funding, and as I've mention before they had $50M to build a 4 story mega-parkade at the Hospital.

    They also have a $100M for an Interchange project at Red Deer when all they have to do is close 1 overpass like it is now while construction moves on to accomplish what their trying to fix.

    For shame Rachel

    Yes, the death rate between 2007 and 2010 was unacceptable. For shame Rach . . . oh, wait.

    While you may think that those other two projects are unnecessary, the experts obviously don't agree with you.

    There is a good reason why we can't have everything, everywhere in the province, money.

    Health care already gobbles up almost half of the provincial budget - how much more should we spend on it? Once it does hit 50%, it will be totally unsustainable in the long run, especially with increasing health care costs to pay for the Boomers in the next couple decades.

    While rural residents may not like it, it makes far more sense from efficiency and economic standpoints to focus resources on centres of excellence in Edmonton and Calgary than to spread medical expertise thinly all across the province.

    Frankly, this is exactly the problem with many Albertans (regardless of where they live) - they bitch and moan about government spending and deficits, yet the second they want something, the sky is the limit for spending.

    When I worked for the government as a contractor in 2014, we'd get requests every week for $100 million interchanges because of a car crash at a highway intersection in some rural community. Nevermind that the cause of the crash was an impaired/speeding driver or that the traffic volume there was less than most intersections in residential areas of any city in the province. Yet, at the same time, their Wildrose MLA alternate between demanding said interchange with bitching and moaning about the provincial deficit.

    Far too many Albertans expect to have their cake and eat it too...and it sounds like you're part of the problem, not the solution.

    No, I'm sure it's Rachel's fault. After all, she should have been aware of this report that was released to the Health Minister months before she was even elected to the office of Premier (who doesn't see all the reports the Health Minister does).

    It's her fault for not being psychic.
