    This is a nice sentiment, and very ‘hoo-rahh’, and I agree with this in many respects, BUT it doesn’t stop the CBC (for whom Rick works) from ALSO exploiting soldiers and the war with their ‘Afghanada’ propaganda. So, I find this rant slightly hypocritical.

    That is so true.

    Thanks Rick

    I appreciate all the support you show us soldier types. I got your autograph when you paid us a visit in Khandahar.
    You’re a solid guy.

    @hoodedfang My views are mine and mine alone. these ideas are original and would work excellent without neglecting any of the luxurys we as Canadians enjoy today. your just to fucking stupid to read what i’ve said and just assume it means privitizing healthcare. even Harper would be impressed with my plan and yes, i’d be proud if he was.

    @1michelemichele1 No. Universal is not fine. Its very far from fine. WTF do you know about healthcare!?? I’ve had both of my parents in hospital and one of them died. I’m from a privedged family that could have provided better if we wern’t forced into Canadas mediocre free-for-all pisspot of a system. so fuck you with your bullshit insight about nothing. you have absolutely no knowledge on the subject and have no thoughts of your own. Universal is not alright

    @hoodedfang forcing somebody into a situation where they could personally provide otherwise is communist. do some research instead of shooting off little quips you have no personal insight on

    Kidkappa04, try educating yourself before shooting your mouth off with Conbot talking points.

    Ever though of finding your own opinion instead of parroting harper’s?

    and universal is fine so piss off!

    That’s not communism at all maroon. Try going to the library and reading about it and not being such a fool.

    @TheDorkOfEarl nobody should be limited in this country to accepting mediocritie when they themselves can provide better. that is horribly, extremely, unequalvically wrong. and also communist…

    p.s. my argument was never about police, don’t be an idiot.

    Private users would be refunded the tax dollars spent the year prior on healthcare taxes. this way we wouldn’t have to adjust federal everyday spending. it would just be return at the beginning of each fiscal year.

    if a private user were to use the public system out of emergency they would be billed appropriately, as not to cheat the taxpayer. at anytime you could switch from one system to the other but every year (on your tax returns) you would provide your intentions for heathcare preferences for the upcoming year.

    cont…
    if you go public then you would pay as normal. a small percentage would be put onto private users (0.5-1% tax) to aid the public system and continue its development but would mainly be funded by public users. this would lower our federal taxes and lessen the strain our hospitals are under trying to service everyone at once.

    Canada should have two-tier health services. public, for people who can’t afford otherwise or choose to use it and private for everyone else. everyone that uses public will fund it the same way it’s done today. while, anyone who uses private would cover their costs separately. every year on your tax returns you would check what system of healthcare you intended on using. if you choose to opt for private care your taxes will be refunded back to you at the beginning of tax return season.

    @TheDorkOfEarl hospitals that deal with their finances directly can decide on their own what to do with finances. whether that be more staff, more equipment or new medicines and vaccines. if somebody has worked themselves into a position to provide better healthcare at their own expense…it should’nt even be a topic for public discussion how rediculous this sounds coming from a Canadian. It should be allowed.

    kidkappa04, more money spent on healthcare doesnt mean better healthcare. plenty of studies – done in the US no less – expose this fact. Education recognizes this too. Intelligence isn’t baded on how much money a family has hoarded. Universities and governments provide funding, knowing the vast majority of high score students do not come from wealthy backgrounds. Leave ti to just the wealthy and university will be full of mediocre students. Want private police too? Everything has exceptions.

    @klo00100 no it isn’t, not if you have the money. Canada should have both, public and private (just like education). nobody should be limited to mediocritie if they can afford better, thats communist.
