#1 "He's challenging Ontario's government-run monopoly health-insurance system, claiming it violates the right to life and security of the person guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms."

The solution is right before their eyes - repeal the Charter.

What, you think the Lefties haven't thought of that ~~yet~~?

"Americans can only hope that Barack Obama heeds the lessons that can be learned from Canadian hardships."

GFL on that one, since it will never apply to him (or Congress). >:-(

#3 THis kind of helthcare rationing is ALREADY HERE in the US. Read the Stimulus bill. It containst a "review board" and mdeical coding as part of the stnadards, and will require doctors to adhere to the coding, and "allowable" treatments in order to comply wiht the law and avoide being penalized.

Als - here is the biggie - its changes Medicare from "accepted and effective" treatments being paid for, to: approved by the federal oversight as being "cost effective" - meanign if you are too old or the procedure or medicine too "new", YOU WILL NOT BE GETTING TREATMENT DUE TO GOVERNMENT PREVENTING YOU FROM DOIND SO!

You have been warned - the US healthcare system is going to be demolished by the "Daschle" rationing-socialism provisions slipped into it by Pelosi.
