KMAN, I suggested to rick that we take this debate to another level as
he alluded to being interested in discussions beyond Canada versus USA
comparisons. However, when I asked him for examples of what he deemed
to be better systems, he reverted to an adversarial stance. I have to
conclude that he actually knows nothing at all about healthcare.

I would welcome a healthcare discussion. For example, I'd really
welcome input from anyone who knows something about Finland. Over the
last 4-5 years I've marvelled as Finland scores high on a variety of
international comparisons -- health, education, quality of life,
economy. I'd love to know how they're doing it.

I doubt, however, that rick can be of much help in that regard.
