Private health care

Dr. Brian Day, who runs a private clinic in Vancouver, was elected the head of the CMA (Canadian Medical Association) today. This is surely a bad sign for the future of public health care in this country. Of course, this development will colour the CMA's approach to public health care. The sky may not yet fall. But be weary of it coming down some time in the near future. It's nice to know that most of my generation will likely suffer from cancer, diabetes, HIV, or AIDS without public health care. Either you're filthy rich, willing to go into debt to stay alive, or dead. It makes me want to go get a vasectomy, while I still can afford it.
