I doubt they will ever get a universal system. The government has screwed up too many things for people to ever accept that.

So both sides are hurting themselves.

There are a variety of European models that they could follow, all of which are more successful and control costs a lot better. Then again, Canada should be looking in the same direction. For some reason we seem to get hysterical everytime someone mentions that perhaps something like a two-tier system would work better. A true two-tier system. Not one where only hockey players get private coverage.
