Alberta gores the sacred cow of Canadian health care

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Alberta's rumoured health-care reforms that would permit physicians to work in a parallel private system. They argue that if these reports are true, the policy changes would represent the most significant health-care reform in decades by injecting competition and price signals into Alberta's health-care system. In the second half of the show, they discuss the ongoing decline of Canada's legacy news media and the role of government policy in blocking innovation and progress.
