Time For New Alberta Health Cards?
Time for plastic cards. When the Goberment suspects 80 million dollars a year in healthcare fraud since 2004, which is probably now in the hundreds of millions, you would think something would be done by now. Not good for hard working taxpayers paying for more free rides. I have mine laminated, but still hard to read numbers. I know you can get a replacement, but let's get with the times with a plastic card.

It's almost unbelievable this hasn't been a thing for over 10 years now. Why we're still on the old tattered card system like it's 1992 is just plain sad.

Mine has been barely holding on for the last few years now lol. Guess I should probably order a new one, ridiculous that they aren't plastic yet though...

I doubt there's been enough money in AHS for such an upgrade due to all the upper level salaries.

Who cares? It's just money, you reactionary rednecks. And besides, all available government resources at currently directed towards legalizing pot. Get your priorities straight.

Good to see the more comical side of you again. Lately you’ve been more serious.
I enjoy when your joking around better.
