Mario responds:
Mervyn is obviously confused. Here he suggests that Barack Obama is the
blessed Messiah [Peace be upon him!]. However, in a recent post he alleged
that Obama was "birth-certificate-less" and had engaged in Zimbabwe-style
financial "trickery". This proves that Mervyn is either unfamiliar with
President Hussein Obama or with Zimbabwe, or both.
I have heard that Mervyn is making Novenas for Obama to bring the US down to
the level of Canada so that he can feel at home in both countries:-))
Mervyn seems to imply that government run health insurance has made Canada a
bastion of competitive enterprise in the world. In that case I wonder why the
"cheap" Canadian health care system is "imploding", according to the incoming
President of the Canadian Medical Association [CMA], Dr. Ann Doig.
According to a previous President of the CMA, Dr. Bryan Day, 5 MILLION
Canadians are without a primary care physician and one MILLION on waiting lists
for surgery and another one MILLION waiting to see a surgeon so that they can
get on a waiting list for surgery. He said British Columbia's health care
budget is projected to go from 42% to 90% in the next several years, which
sounds like an "implosion" to me. Doesn't sound very competitive for their
business environment. Sounds like it is headed down the same rathole as the
British health care system, and needs serious reform.
What would Canadians who want to live do without the US system?

Based on Uncle Alfred's report, I wonder why Canada doesn't outsource its
struggling primary care and medical testing and surgery to the world class
Cuban system, which would enable the Castro brothers to continue oppressing
their people:-))
