What health care workers / clinicians must contend with in Canada's monopolistic health system!

Canada rated World's number ONE country in studies of wait lists AND in public health bureaucrats per citizen

New letters in today's @VancouverSun - by some of the 81% of citizens in support of our legal challenge; too bad that both our provincial and federal governments dismiss the democratic views of the vast majority of residents - as patients suffer and wait vancouversun.com/news/local-new…

"...a likely surge in waiting lists in the public system if the NDP crackdown on the private clinics takes effect, as schedules, Oct. 1." A prospect that regardless of where you stand politically, should scare every British Columbian vancouversun.com/opinion/column… #BCpoli #Cdnpoli

Where is the evidence that private health care clinics in any way compromise our public health care system? The facts are that private health care options are saving the @bcndp government millions every year when it comes to the procedures being contracted out #BCpoli #Cdnpoli
