I see the article posted as propaganda - not good journalism. Shows more the degredation of the New York Times than it does the degredation of the Canadian health care system.
In any case, there are a lot of people against providing universal healthcare in the United States (not necessarily on this board or participating in this discussion) and I don't understand why. There are plenty of organizations that have opened free clinics, and people aren't protesting those... is it just because they want people to go without proper medical attention, or is it because they don't want tax payers footing the bill - or are they worried that their tax money will go towards the health care of illegal immigrants? Sounds like the latter from what I have heard around Southern California lately. Dunno... I would think something like that would be easily solved by stating that no illegals get care at government-run clinics, then require proof of citizenship at the door.
I wonder how long it will take for independent free clinics to provide universal health care.
