Want to save money on healthcare

Agree to sell private firm to Americans

Get worse healthcare

Independence is reduced

Americans turn on you

Be Canada

Want to save some money by not funding CBC, private media

Almost all conservative newspapers already owned by Americans

Have not a single way to defend ourselves

Not a single source of journalistic integrity left in Canada
