If someone needs immediate health care, it’s there. Everyone is triaged, which means you are evaluated and are put in order of severity. No one loses their house because of health bills. No one loses their life savings because of health bills. No one dies because they can’t afford their medication. In the US health care is big business. In Canada it’s a right.
“improvised” will be rushed ahead in priorities? No, that’s not how it works. No one is dying.
Not just Canadian. Just really good manners. Something Trump doesn’t know anything about.
“If I may” is a polite way to interject in a conversation. Carney does this, because he understands that’s how it’s done in normal political meetings. This, was not a normal political meeting. This was Trump going on and on and on. About the beautiful White House, and the gold, blah, blah blah.
Mark Carney is the person we want at the helm right now in the rough waters ahead. Don’t underestimate him. What he did at that meeting was show diplomacy at its finest. Calm down. Let him do what he does best.
I know! I caught that too! Carney is awesome.
Yes, triage exists. In my case, despite my injury, they monitored me and I was placed in sequence of severity. My heart beat and blood pressure were ok, so I waited. I’m cool with that. If someone is in more distress than me, by all means, take them first.
Don’t underestimate Mark Carney. He was the former Governor of the Bank of England and was a prominent figure in discussions surrounding Brexit, particularly in relation to its economic implications that Brexit could bring to the UK economy. He argued AGAINST Brexit. He was right.
Carney has been dealing with international finances and issues his whole career. He IS talking to Trump like he’s a 5 year old. A 5 year old out of control. Carney’s restraint and diplomacy was exemplary.
And let’s not forget our health care. We may have challenges, but Canadians aren’t losing their homes and/or life savings because of medical emergencies. I dislocated and broke my arm last year from a bad fall. Long wait at emergency, but once x-rays were done and I saw a doctor, surgery was scheduled quickly. Total bill: $0.00
This wasn’t a “meeting”. This was Trump embarrassing himself, as usual. Trump talks about Canada joining the US, saying “tremendous health care”. OK, really? Talking about Carney, right in front of him: “This man coming up through the ranks”. OMG! Look at Mark Carney’s resume you idiot. And, bringing up Wayne Gretzky?
Agreed. It’s called “manners” and “diplomacy”. Something Trump knows nothing about.
Before I posted this, I searched to see if it had already been posted. Why is this not EVERYWHERE???
Are you finally going to shut your treasonous pie-hole??? Take your nazi, inbred, uneducated, racist followers and just fucking MOVE to the shit hole south of us if you think it’s so great.
So, the Nazi’s sent Jewish people to concentration camps, did horrible things to their children (especially twins), gassed their relatives, displaced them… But they are now doing the same thing to Palestinians? I really don’t have a side politically. I just don’t understand.
