TnT, thanks for the links. I'll look at them as I find time (damned
waiting lists, eh?).

Anyway, at random, I looked at one site. I didn't need to look long on
this one to find, well, bullsit.

Here's what the guy says in a note at the bottom: "Because people are
effectively denied timely and effective medical services, they flock to
the "quacks" who will see them, same day. Thus, the government run
medical system not only has dried up real medicine, it has resulted in
a pernicious system of nostrum-mongery" [from:

Now I don't even need data to know that the guy grabbed this from up
his ass! If I had the time, I'm sure I could find data showing that the
use of quacks is no greater in Canada than in the USA.

I appreciate that some of your sources may be quite good. This guy,
however, was a quack!
