 The Top Ten Things People Believe About Canadian Health Care, But Shouldn't
Two-thirds of Canadians (66 per cent) tend to be supportive, more or less, of a host of new models of financing in order to reduce stress on the system - for example, where everyone (except those with low incomes) pays a small amount for health care services out of their own pocket.
In fact, when Canadians do express a preference for either private or public approaches to health reform, the majority are willing to fund their future medical needs themselves rather than pay higher taxes to expand the Medicare model of health care.
But the federal-provincial deputy ministers of health, in their last report, made a convincing case that health care costs are rising within the system at 5 percent to 6 percent a year, just under the current cost pressures, and that there are a number of new pressures that are likely to accelerate that trend.

 Proud To Be Canadian .ca
She presumes to wag her finger publicly at the new prime minister, advising him to behave, telling him on three occasions that “he would be well advised...”, and in so doing she amuses us all with what is becoming an increasingly humorous display of liberal media’s abject sense of self-importance.
Here’s a list of whines contained within one article, aside from the above, in point form, because it’s not as ridiculous and embarrassing for the pantywaist writer as the way it was actually written by her:

 Idealistic Pragmatist: voting
When he was Canada's environment minister, after all, the policies he proposed were very different from the ones he's proposing now, when he's looking to win your votes.
If Canadians had given the Conservatives a minority government yesterday, it wouldn't have expressed their confidence in conservatism, it would have been the outcome of voting to punish the Liberals for the sponsorship scandal.
Paul Martin now has the nearly impossible task of convincing Canadians that the sponsorship scandal was all the fault of Chrétien and his people, but without alienating any of those people, since that's done nothing but bite him in the ass so far.
