Canada

While I'm thankful to the politicians we elected and everyone who pushed them to made this happen, I'd like to note what a great example of the type of neoliberal social programs we've come to love the CDCP is. It's not universal, it preserves insurance companies' profits, and it's managed by a private insurance corporation. A chef's kiss! 😘👌 Unfortunately I don't see us moving away from these types of policies until (and if) we rebuild the NDP on its socialist / working class roots, the roots that gave us universal healthcare in the distant past. Until then, we'll keep excluding people from these kinds of programs which decreases the popular support for them and increases the support for gutting them.
