I can afford health care but I live in a country where it is provided for me. I get the same common denominator health care as the next average joe. If I have anything more serious than a cold I'm off to the Mayo Clinic on the first plane.

Only a very small percentage of the doctors trained here stay here. What we have in our clinics and hospitals is South African and East Indian trained doctors many of whom cannot speak basic English.

So if you think basic health care paid for by the public purse guarantees a basic standard think again. More people die in Canada from Canadian hospital introduced infections than from handguns.

A few years ago someone was dying from a rare virus in a hospital here. There was a new vaccine for this virus that was shipped to Canada. At the border it was discovered that the vaccine did not have both official languages on the bottle (French/English) and was not allowed in.

So if your motto is let the rich pay how do you propose to contain the rich in the cesspool you are proposing?
