Did I mention he's not a citizen and lied on his immigration papers, but still got treatment for his daughter? Even when Canada is cold blooded it's better than the US system.

I figured Thraxle would post this if he saw it so this was preemptive. Anyway, here's Canada doing the opposite: http://www.torontosun.com/news/torontoandgta/2011/04/10/17941681.html

Because the family can't get their meds in their home country, they let them stay.

Can't understand your point here, BO, do you agree with that happening or not?

This is something that a conservative would jump on so, presumably seeing it before a community conservative sees it and posts it, I have taken the liberty to post it and refute why it's by no means reprehensible and in fact the the canadian healthcare system is superior to our own not, only per service, but morally as per these articles.

Your point is well taken veta.

And I am surprised that thrax did not reply yet.

And just for you veta, I changed my long standing tag line on this account.

Single payer was never on the table when the debate was on. It's too bad. I am huge advocate for single payer. We need to take back this country from the corporations.

Seriously.
