Great news for people who want to give me money, I have a Patreon now! If you’ve got some coin to spare and you feel like sparing it in my direction, please have a look:

I started looking into the history of Canada’s path toward universal healthcare, and I found it striking how similar it was to America’s current battle.
Big thanks to all these awesome Canadian YouTubers who donated their voices to the project:
What’s Bothering Me Today: The Bothered Boy himself! Daily videos on bothersome things. BB has a lot of knowledge about both Canadian and American politics and his takes are always worth a watch.

The Serfs: A real up-and-comer on YouTube that I’ve decided to take under my wing. Could see some great things from them if they can keep up that hustle. Good luck!

We’re in Hell: One of the only people I speak to multiple times a week since Corona! Sam has a background in sociology and his videos use obscure & interesting concepts to dissect topics like Jordan Peterson, Pornhub, and the Illuminati. They’re also hilarious! I cowrote most of them.

Mackenzie Iyer: YouTuber with a background in Canadian history and geopolitics, doing great video essays on pop culture. Lots of video games and the occasional chud-dunk.

Sources:
I looked over a lot of stuff but I wanted to highlight the four sources that I found the most helpful:
Alberta Advantage podcast: “Doctors On Strike? 1962 and the Birth of Canadian Medicare”
Great podcast, very in-depth look at the Doctors’ Strike and the events leading up to it. Highly recommend.

Really interesting collection of primary source documents from Saskatchewan Archives here:

“Bitter Medicine”
Great documentary about the whole tough road to universal healthcare:

And this book, the ebook version of which I borrowed from my local library and had it disappear off my iPad when it was due back. Technology sucks.

Anyway, those are the best sources imho but here are some more if you’re really curious:
