Five Strikes, You're In!

Well, it's official.

The huge multinational Maximus is being fined for the 5th consecutive assessment period for not meeting benchmarks for 'interfacing' (ie. answering phone calls and mail requests) with British Columbia Medicare and Pharmacare 'customers' (ie you and me).

And for this we are paying them hundreds of millions of dollars.

How long will this go on before we force the Minister responsible, George Abbott, to say:

"You are costing us money....
You are throwing our own people out of work....
You are not as good as our own people....
You are in breach of contract.....
Game over....
Good-bye."
