From The Chronicle Herald, Oct 21, 2007:
AMHERST — Bill and Tina Archer are caught in a vicious circle: They can’t get help for their seven-year-old son’s ear problem without a referral from a family doctor — and they can’t find a family doctor even after months of trying.
"I’ve done everything I can think of to get a family physician, without any luck," Ms. Archer said Saturday in an interview from her Amherst home. "Now, I just don’t know where to turn."
******************Canadians love to brag about their substandard health care. Why do they oppose adopting European models which are working?
Unfortunately Canadians are deluded by a socialist myth invented by Liberals that any kind of private heath care is evil. They fail to realize that EVERY OTHER DEVELOPED COUNTRY on the planet Earth have both public and private systems, and most of them are cheaper and work better than our Cuban style system. I wonder if that thought ever crossed Mr. Archer's mind as his child suffers because he can't find a family doctor.
When are Canadians going to look to Europe and realize that they have health care that works? When are they going to wake up and realize the system they have now is crap?
It'll happen once the wealthy baby boomers get old and sick.
