Smith said permanent residents and non-citizens living in Alberta will have no marker displayed on their card.
Yeah because law enforcement wont abuse that.
Albertans will need to provide proof of citizenship or immigration status when applying for or renewing a driver’s licence, according to the province.
Minister of Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction Dale Nally said the federal government was consulted on the change.
“Minister of Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction” sounds kinda maple maga
Driver’s licences incorporating Alberta health-care card information will roll out at the same time, Smith said.
“This will also provide additional security around health-care numbers,” Smith said.
Smith said there are over 530,000 more health-care numbers than there are people living in Alberta.
Yeah if you are having difficulties with health-care numbers and the population that is an issue, but you wanna bet that the 530 000 number is in relation to people who do not have a license? Here in Saskatchewan we get free stickers to put on our health cards when they are up for renewal, I am willing to bet that you will have to renew your license to keep your health card up to date.
Reducing red tape by creating more bureaucracy and wasting money.
Sheesh. That’s so not something that’s needed on a drivers license. That can be abused by all kinds of people
Maple Maga.
Just give us a fucking plastic Alberta health card instead of this stupid paper tear out shit. But I gotta that would make too much sense.
You guys have paper health cards?? Not even laminated?
Nah. You need to laminate it yourself, which is technically not allowed for some reason, apparently, but everyone does it anyway.
My healthcare card is long gone, I just give my address if I go in and they look it up. Never had an issue.
No dog whistles here. Fuck Marliana
This is an old conservative trick: 1) defund public services 2) divert blame for the negative results on an ‘enemy class’ of citizen who are abusing and breaking public services 3) distract with a witch-hunt for these enemies;
In the 80s the enemies were “welfare queens”, now they’re immigrants.
While I would have the marker I’ll start showing my PAL instead of drivers license then. It’s an official photo ID as well.
That is an EXCELLENT idea! Gonna steal that in the future.
Useless Clown Party strikes again!!
Hmmm creating rhetoric against an identifiable underclass, then requiring the class to carry identification that labels them as a member of the undesirable underclass… Where have I seen that before?!?

It’s sad that she KNOWS she can be so transparently evil and get away with it.
This is of course nothing more than a new way to demonize immigrants, aka “damn foriners takin’ our jobs!”
The healthcare number is the lube to ease it in.
The 530k number is a complete lie. She’s already been called out on it, and it doesn’t matter.
She should honestly have a handlebar moustache to twirl, except that of course it would make her a tranny.
As a person who is Trans myself I understand how you thinking her using the car part slang is cool but I personally really dislike it. Your other points are well taken though.
So the Minister for Red tape reduction is adding more steps to the licensing process?
That’s ok, the same minister in Ontario is a part of the biggest cabinet in history.
