Considering their are tens of millions of Canadians, and hundreds of millions of Americans, a few anecdotes with little detail or context isn't very meaningful. You were the one that posted the lecture on anecdotes and then you posted one that suited you...what is with that?? Already replied to that point. "Anecdotes are a dime a dozen, but the anecdote I posted was about the president of the Canadian Medical Association, not some random Canadian." Message 24124859 As for the point of the anecdote, Lane3 pointed it out well. "Seems to me the value of the anecdote is the acknowledgment that people who can will find ways to jump the system." Message 24124897 Beyond that it points out an apparent need to jump the queue, not just an ability.
