some things just should not be privatized, and healthcare is at the top of the list. hell i don't even think auto insurance should be. i pay about twice as much for my car insurance in Alberta compared to what i'd be paying in BC through ICBC

So having doctors leave to other countries because of the private system is a better solution?
OK, doctors coming out of med school work in both systems, just as the doctors who have been working for 20+ years would. After a certain time, allow them to choose which system they choose to focus on.
There already is a 2-tiered system in canada. Gov't officails have access to care that the general public don't have.
How is that fair?
