Agreed, if any do, name them, so Canada’s shareholders (the regular everyday people who are voters) can get them out of office. #TommyDouglas #UniversalHealthCare

Sir,
he styles himself as (a) #TommyDouglas*
i used to know damm near everything about the #TheGreatestCanadian & i may not be alone in finding this… (grandiose)
There’s a giant LEAP between philosophy & proven execution - the latter being impossible withOUT humility

I credit Kiefer Sutherland’s Grandfather for ensuring my lifetime support for left wing social justice initiatives and political parties #TommyDouglas 🇨🇦

Ok that's at least a valid basis. There was a #SocialGospel tradition back to #TommyDouglas and #JimmyCarter in North American Christian politics that had not died but been suppressed. Talarico would do more than #YasQueen #Bratz #Barbie bigger-hair-Harris to bring it back.

Thankfully #Canada 🇨🇦 has had #UniversalHealthcare nationwide since 1972, lead by the efforts of politician #TommyDouglas, known in Canada as the “Father of Canadian Medicare”. Voted in 20004 as “The Greatest Canadian” in a national #CBC poll.

Gee, it's almost like all the #conservative provincial gov'ts have the same agenda to cripple our Healthcare to usher in a for-profit model so they benefit from our pain.😡 #shame
Like in Saskatchewan: what would #tommydouglas have to say about Moe and how @saskndp.bsky.social can defend better? 🤔

I agree Mark Carney is the best leader we have for these times. But the anecdotes Lisa Raitt shared show just how far right the left has moved over the years. Where are the true progressives? #tommydouglas

"Once more let me remind you what fascism is. It need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt. It may even wear a dress shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege." - Tommy Douglas

The fight for #healthcare changed the game a lot, and the party that championed it became the 3rd party break thru in federal politics and it changed the dynamics irreversibly in Canadian democracy 💪 in fact the socialist party leader is still our favourite Canadian #TommyDouglas
