Have you seen the latest from the Brits...conservatives are moving up quite nicely. Blair needs to switch to the Conservatives and enjoy the ride. The poll puts Labour on 38%, down three points since last month and just four points ahead of the Conservatives, who moved ahead five points from 29% to 34%. sky.com

I don't see Canada with a $12T GDP or being the strongest power on the planet either. Do you? But does any of that have anything to do with what I wrote or is it just another attempt to avoid unpleasant truths? Speaking of slick, you're making your master look like Crazy Glue. Let's cut out the crap, OK? I'm not stupid enough to fall for your transparent little tricks. It appears numerous others such as Jerrel and PROLIFE aren't either. needless defence contracts SO now your an expert on military contracts and technology too? WOW! I dont see Canadian politicians rigging elections and trying to subvert democracy. I saw some American pols trying to do that, yes. They were Democrats in Florida. they are taken care of if they get into medical trouble. If they live through the wait in the ER. Elective surgery? Good luck. See you in a year. I am not for such big government as those countries, but we could learn a lot from Canada. What? How to make bad hospitals worse? Stanford University Hospital has a union that has been growing in strength for years. Patient care has been heading downhill with it. Increasingly, patients are insisting on some other hospital when the doctor wants to send them there. They are reaching the point where they get only those that only they have the gov't-subsidized eqp't to handle and those who have no choice- -they won't make it to another hospital, or only Stanford will take them. The staff there is insolent and has the attitude they are doing you a great favor by letting you in. Except finally it is blowing up in their faces and the hospital is facing financial problems and the staff is facing firings. This is what you want? You're welcome to it.
