Beth That is a good example for class discussion. The degree isn't alleged, at least not necessarily- it is an actual degree if my understanding is correct. It isn't the same MD degree we in the US are used to. The degree, as I understand it, is M.D., C.M. Latin is Medicinae Doctorem et Chirurgiae Magistrum. It is an undergraduate degree in medicine. If I'm understanding that correctly it is closer to our PA degree than the US M.D. Corrections welcome from north of the border or anyone else who knows as we'd want to have that info correct before discussing it since the "expertise" of the author would likely come up.

There is so much wrong with it (starting with the author's alleged MD, which must be something other than the "M.D." with which we're familiar), and I thought it might be new fodder for critical thinking.
