i love my country...... but i hate my province of british columbia

people are are starting to leave in record numbers for alberta and ontario. it used to be people would move here. everything is so damn expensive here, especially property. our health system can't get their shit together. we are even trying to recruit american doctors and nurses. there are so many of us who don't even have a family doctor.i live in a city with about 115k people but twice this year the hospital had to close because it didn't have enough doctors. just the other day it had to shut down because a doctor went home sick and a hospital has to have a minimum amount working. what's bs is we can't replace that doctor from another region....wtf!?

aside from that, crime is rampant. drug addicts are everywhere and our judicial system sucks. our mayors are way over paid. some of them making almost the same amount that trump is making.

the only thing keeping me here is the beauty of this province, the weather and my age. if i were in my 30s or 40s i'd be hightailing it outa here,

thanks for listening

I had no idea it was like that!
@Jenny1234 the frustrating thing is everybody acknowledges the problems but nothing is being done about it because everyone is trying to pass the responsibilty on someone else....the problems are not new

@beermeplease that’s just so unfortunate. Is it something you can contact your local mp about?
@Jenny1234 i guess i could but it seems like the attitude around here is "they will here me, but will they listen?" it's a real mess
