Public service medicine is based on theft???? I'm a Canadian.
Don't feed me that bulls#!t. Extorting lots of money for ****-
poor healthcare is theft.

So, are you saying that Canada's heathcare system is theft / extortion /
****-poor, or what?

I do seem to recall hearing that it can be damned hard to get a good doctor
up there.

(And yes, to be fair, it can be damned hard to PAY for a doctor down here.
And hard to find a good doctor even farther south, and so on. You get what
you pay (or don't) for, lawsuit insurance and other crappy fees
notwithstanding.)


I've got an idea - let's send Jim Thompson to Canada, and have him ask
about a hip replacement. ;-)
