Cattivo ✅bonafide🇨🇦<p>If the government doesn’t want to take medical health labs back, there is a first step. Break up the monopoly. Allow independent, BC-based businesses to run labs. It’s how we take it back.</p><p>To hand over lab testing to a monopoly was a mistake from the start.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/bcpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bcpoli</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/lifelabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lifelabs</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/healthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>healthcare</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ElbowsUp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElbowsUp</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/bc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bc</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canada</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/b-c-health-coalition-urges-province-to-end-contract-with-u-s-owner-of-lifelabs-1.7512442" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">cbc.ca/news/canada/british-col</span><span class="invisible">umbia/b-c-health-coalition-urges-province-to-end-contract-with-u-s-owner-of-lifelabs-1.7512442</span></a></p>
Stephen Elliott~Buckley<p>If your doctor gives you a blood work requisition labeled <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Lifelabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lifelabs</span></a>, just take it to the hospital. </p><p>That is a super easy way to boycott America, and private for-profit Healthcare. </p><p>And health authority should be promoting the existence of their outpatient labs all the time, but I think they don't because they don't want to be seen as competing with the private labs. And not just Lifelabs, the other ones too.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cdnpoli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canada</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/elxn45" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elxn45</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/antifa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>antifa</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/elbowsup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elbowsup</span></a></p>
