As we crest the 73,000 signature mark, I wanted to thank each and every one of you who has signed this petition and continues to share it!
Not so long ago our government stated that they were NOT going to have this conversation about MSP Premiums as they said we needed reminding that health care was not free. That does not address the issue of the unfair way this "tax" is collected. We need wholesale change that addresses this regressive taxation policy!
As the current government is gearing up for their 2017 campaign and throwing money at what they think is important to us, we must remind them that flat-rate MSP Premiums are unfair and does not address income inequality and does not ensure a sustainable health care system.
