CAMHS is the only mental health care provider in my area (rural southern Ontario) and they have been really good to me for the most part aside from problems that I can only attribute to being understaffed and underfunded. I have no money so aside from being the only provider in my area, they are the only provider I can afford. I do know that some of the employees at the centre I go to are contracted from St. Joseph's in Hamilton so maybe that's why they're so good, I don't know. I had no idea they had such an awful track record though and now I feel awful for not knowing and using their services now. Welp.

The Dark One posted:Is there precedent for an opposition-packed Senate rejecting legislation? Harper's senate appointees killed a climate change bill passed by a majority of NDPers and Liberals back when the Conservatives only mad a minority. At the time it was considered unprecedented for a party with a minority of seats in the lower chamber to kill a bill using their majority in the senate. Under Mulroney a Liberal dominated senate essentially forced an election over the issue of Free Trade. It's probably the last time Canadians were presented with a truly consequential choice at the ballot box, though our first-past-the-post electoral system meant that it only took about four in edit - cause I'm a little bit dyslexic Helsing fucked around with this message at 21:31 on Dec 10, 2015 |

The Dark One posted:Is there precedent for an opposition-packed Senate rejecting legislation? I don't know, but they weren't rejecting it before the election, either. What did happen was Conservative senator Don Plett pushed a ton of "bathroom bill" amendments: basically policing trans people's use of washrooms and so on, to the point where passing it would make trans rights in Canada worse. It got really bad, so people were actually glad it got killed with the election. Now, there's no change in Senate numbers, and nothing to stop Plett from doing the exact same thing again. (The same bill passed the House originally with no amendments too.) @Nozh: Don't feel bad. As far as I know, CAMH generally does good work with addiction and most mental health issues. Trans care has just been their terrible dark secret for decades. It's why the Ontario government picked them as the central hub for trans services in the province, and why other health care professionals felt good about making referrals there: they're a quality institution that does great work in mental health across a wide range of specialties, it fits. No one just ever paid attention to them not following the international standards of care, etc etc.

But it won't happen as long as people keep slapping the label onto anything they agree with, from urban guerrilla gardening to Mark Zuckerberg's latest tax dodge. I'm catching up on the thread again, but I'd like to point out that foundation isn't a charity. It's not a tax dodge.

I have, in fact, lost a really close friendship over racism because I was unwilling to let it slide or ignore it. And Id do it again if I had to. I think that makes me a better person.

Gonna move this puppy into canpol.Furnaceface posted:Patrick Brown was trained by Hudak personally to take over and I cant believe how willfully ignorant you are of the platforms they run on. Tough on Crime bullshit, cuts to healthcare, gutting of the public sector in all the wrong places (never of the useless cushy overpaid upper management positions created to funnel unqualified friends into), right-to-work legislature/union busting, tax cuts for wealthy business owners (I know this one applies to you personally so I get why you like it), the list loving goes on and on. Are you sure man? I remember him being pretty against LHINs and CCAC bureaucracies. quote:The 14 Local Health Integration Networks set up by the Liberals, as well as the Tory-created Community Care Access Centres, aren't working and haven't been able to hit most of their targets, said Opposition Leader Tim Hudak. Regarding corporate income tax rates, well that's probably the one thing you've never heard me bash the OLP about.  Hudak did talk publicly about selling off 49% of Hydro One. I'd prefer that to the politician who didn't talk about it and then turned around to sell off 60%. Hudak also called the panam games pretty early on quote:"With less than four years until the opening of the Games there has been no progress on site selection, let alone construction of venues," Hudak wrote. quote:The Pan Am and Parapan Am Games held in Toronto this summer came within the $2.4-billion budget, officials said Thursday, which means organizers are eligible for lucrative performance bonuses laid out in their contracts. Personally, I dislike Hudak more than Wynne. The guy is a buffoon who turned an easy win into losing a majority but your rant was a little too revisionist. I do think Patrick Brown will run a different campaign, he's managed not to put his foot in his mouth about the refugees so far anyways. 2.5 more years until I get to hear $8 million more worth of union ads about how conservatives are the devil.
