If Ontario residents stay 7 months, they lose their health care.

"To qualify for Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) coverage, a person must be a resident of Ontario as defined in Regulation 552 of the Health Insurance Act (HIA). Except for those residents identified in section 1.1(1)(a) below, a resident must ordinarily be present in Ontario which means the resident must make his or her permanent and principal home in Ontario and, with some exceptions, be present in Ontario for 153 days in any given 12-month period."

Not that this bill would convince me to ever cross the border again

And yet, Albertans want to join the US? Do they think they’re going to retain their health care, maternity leave, etc.??? Are they just stupid?

Albertan health care is actively being Americanized. Heard of Covenant Health?
