I really don't know anything about Canadian system. Its has to be better than that of Australia. But I have lived in Australia. Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches..... Ike I do not wish to argue with you. I guess these are personal preferences. I guess if there is rascism and sexism and agism, the govt should tell the immigrants upfront. The badge of "Equal Opportunity" should not be flashed..when you lodge a complaint, their whole legal system looks the other way... Immigration for Australia is a necessity, their whole economic system will collapse if they stop immigration....and only the very desparate want free citizenship. And I think Australian govt exploits that desperation. have you seen where and how the "Asian" immigrants live ? I was offered citizensip and refused. The ambulance - well - I am asked to caugh up a hefty amount in medical insurance for the priviledge Ike - over and above the 50% and an additional 2% of medicare levy....and when my house was burgled thrice in a week, the fingerprinting guy took 3 days (not 3 hours) to reach me - everytime -....what was the 100s of thousands I paid in taxes doing for me ???? What services ??? Canada may be a wholely different ballgame...and I plead total ignorance....i have heard a lot of good things...the 7 months pregnancy leave and all that. if it works, its great... About the broken back - these are called job hazards. I would also pay a soldier who goes to war more for his patriotism, his risk and the hard work he puts in his combat readiness - but he knows the risks !!!! In the end - its all a matter of choice. You like that particular style of govt, I like capitalism. Thats the reason why we have various idealogies al florishing in the world. I for one love CA and the choices it offers. I hear Australia has started GST. Well...they are on the road..and maybe one day they will have a reformed govt....
