Canada

Tax the wealthy. If we want to fix this problem money has to come from somewhere. The middle class any poor have nothing left to give. I don’t know why it’s so difficult for our government to have the spine to do it.

Privatization is the goal .... it's like trying to talk to the arsonist and asking them how they are going to solve the random house burning problem around town.

People can't see a family doctor and ERs are overcrowded, and the solution is to incent doctors (or rather, corporations that will employ doctors) into lucrative practices that we don't have much of a wait list on, anyway.

At least as far as Ontario goes, this is the 407 or LTC homes all over again: it doesn't make any sense, socially or economically, but it sure will make rich people richer. I mean, I'm sure it's no coincidence that Loblaw is Deco Labels' largest customer, just like it's no coincidence that Mike Harris ended up on Chartwell's board of directors.

I think voting for ministers directly would have to a part of electoral reform. A lot of people who don't vote for the only party that safeguards and advances public health care, the NDP, would vote for Health Ministers that are for universal health care.

To fix Canada’s crumbling health care system, we need better tools than duct tape
