Your phrasing makes it sounds like 9 different MLAs are trying to recall the UCP MLAs.

Nooo that's embarrassing haha, thanks for catching! You're totally right. 2,600 years ago, not 2,600 BC! I need to read more carefully!

So what does two-tier care actually “solve”?

Not the bottleneck. Not wait times overall.

It mostly changes who waits and who can buy their way to the front – while public queues risk getting slower, not faster.

I'm open to there being better alternatives; what are some formal mechanisms you've seen that are better at providing responsible levers for the public to participate in or challenge governance?

Huh, nice job holding him to account! I'm not used to reporters doing that on the CBC. Love to see it.

What's happening over there is brutal. I hope the recall efforts can help trigger an election earlier to help translate some of the frustration and anger into organizing.

Frankly, even those who don't care for biodiversity ought to remember that cats roaming outdoors unattended are much more likely to catch serious diseases and die younger, more violent deaths.

(I assume that's the same in the UK, though I recognize you don't have the large predators we have in NA.)

My cats are indoor-only unless they're on a leash, and if I ever own a house (haha... ha) they'll get an enclosed catio for spending time outside.

Use of the notwithstanding clause is a betrayal of the duty of a government to its people. If you can't enact your agenda without violating the rights of your citizens, you are either stupid and unimaginative or vicious and cruel.
