Thanks for sharing your insights on the Canadian health system... Thanks. Usually, I really can't be bothered posting this kind of stuff anymore as I'm just so damned tired of reading all of that good ol' Yankee bullsh*t about how crappy the Canadian health care system is compared to the wonderful, fantabulous American system. Incredible! If it's so damned amazing, I have to wonder why it is that each summer, our city newspaper's "letters to the editor" often receive and print several nice "thank you" letters from Americans who became seriously ill, or had an accident, etc.. while vacationing in Canada, and who have taken the time to write to say how well (and courteously) they were treated at hospitals up here. AND, that they wish they could say the same about their OWN hospitals back home. Either all of these people are lying, or things just ain't as bad up here as all your (insurance company-backed) yatter mouth media types like to make it seem. Oh, and btw, try to go to a U.S. hospital with any private health-insurance card or our provincially-issued health insurance cards from up here, and they'll look at you like you just passed them a piece of plastic covered in mashed spider brains.

>>Will GW Bush accept responsibility for this situation...? << Clinton had 8 years to do something about it. He didn't have a war to pay for. NOW it's an issue, you guys look for an issue, but you have to hold your noses when you bring it up because of the stench. Jim Willie, If I point at a person's flawed thinking (as well as hyperbole), is my point still a straw dog attack, and their's sound reasoning? LOL Jim
