Do you need to tell them? I never did. I just assumed there's some sort of government system to track which citizens are residents in each province, if nothing else to keep people from "double dipping" in two provinces' healthcare systems.

Then again, BC charges health premiums to seniors, right? So maybe keeping an AB health card is a way seniors might try to dodge that, I guess? (I'm just here on vacation, really!)

Nah. You need to laminate it yourself, which is technically not allowed for some reason, apparently, but everyone does it anyway.

Dementia and Parkinson's. That sucks.

My kiddos love listening to his self-narrated stories on Spotify. ("OK Google. Play Robert Munsch stories.") His love for children is so clear in his interactions with them in those recordings.

I mean... What are Canadian MPs supposed to do about US corruption? It's up to them to figure it out. It's the host country's choice where to host it; if the US administration chooses to line their own pockets, it's up to US legislators/courts to hold them to account.

Or am I missing something?

Literal newspeak, straight from 1984.

Holy shit, that's insane. No wonder the US has triple the healthcare spending of their peers with worse health outcomes.
