Can Alberta Save Healthcare?

In the latest episode of Not 'Sorry' on Juno News, host Alexander Brown, director of the National Citizens Coalition, dives into a seismic week for Alberta under Premier Danielle Smith. Smith’s principled conservative governance continues to serve as an example for all to follow.

The story of the day – of the week – belongs to Alberta's multifaceted triumphs. Beyond pushing for a New Deal to secure a pipeline route to the B.C. coast – navigating what Brown calls “needlessly hostile and disloyal NDP territory” – Smith is lauded for safeguarding vulnerable children from an "Affirmation Industrial Complex," which rushes into irreversible decisions. She also stands firm for women in sports, ensuring fairness amid cultural shifts.

But the real headliner? Smith's announcement of groundbreaking healthcare reform. This "Dual Practice Model" empowers doctors to operate in both public and private sectors, promising a surge in surgeries and efficiency. As Brown notes, "This is a game-changer." And he shares insights from a high-ranking healthcare source who told him: "This is great news, but now the hard work begins. We need to make sure this is implemented properly, or medicare stalwarts will point to this as a failed experiment. This is our chance to join our peer nations across the world in two-tier care."

Critiquing Canada’s failing status quo, Brown urges all provinces to follow Alberta's lead in ditching outdated systems for innovative solutions, and the federal Liberals must be forced to respect this vitally needed change. Joining the conversation is guest Colin Craig, president of Second Street, an advocacy group deeply embedded in healthcare reform. Craig unpacks the policy's potential, offering data-driven perspectives on why the public is ready for this, and why private options could slash wait times and boost outcomes without undermining universal access.

Craig’s recent healthcare advocacy also continues a terrific documentary filmed in Japan.

500,000 Canadians walked out of an emergency room last year. Millions are without family physicians. Millions grow sicker on wait lists each day. Enough is enough.
