I never made that claim,
===========================
Yes, you did.
"...No one is waiting for treatment..." 2/20/2005 2:14pm
Complete sentence. No "and", "or", "but".

Just because it is a sentence doesn't mean it is a complete statement.

Example:

What do you mean rick is a bit of an idiot, that's not true. He's got to be
the biggest idiot on the planet!

To paste only the first sentence and then claim that I don't think rick is
an idiot would be just as dishonest as what you have been doing with my
sentence about waiting.

Here is more of the context:

======

As many as 100 children in Newfoundland face 30-month waits for
the
high-tech scans, said Geoffrey Higgins, clinical chief of
diagnostic imaging
at the Health Care Corporation of St. John's. While the wait is
"less than
ideal," he said patients' conditions are being investigated and
followed by
other medical means, and that anyone needing an emergency scan
gets one.
======================
LOL Sure, 2 years into a wait he might really NEED emegency
treatment, eh? At that time he goes right to the top of the
list. Maybe too late, eh? At the least, he has suffered more
than was medically necessary, and at worst is now beyond
treatment, or too weak to survive the treatment.


You're telling me there aren't poor people in the US in
isolated or slum
areas where they have a hard time getting a scan at their
convenience? Get
real.
====================
Another strawman, I see. We aren't talking about their
'convenience', we're talking about the convenience of the medical
systam. When that 'poor' person arrives at a medical facility in
need, then yes, I'm saying that they will not wait 2 1/2 years
for treatment.

No one is waiting for treatment. It's about a specific type of scan in a
specific geographic area and the waiting is for non-emergencies.

=====

What I am saying (clearly) is that nobody is waiting 2 1/2 years to get
treatment. They get treatment the day they walk into the hospital. What they
are waiting for, as the article says, is a specific type of high-tech scan.

Note from the above: "While the wait is "less than ideal," he said patients'
conditions are being investigated and followed by other medical means, and
that anyone needing an emergency scan gets one.

Now, let's get back to what you have been saying:

rick: kman also claimed that no one in Canada waits for treatment, yet
another lie

I never made the statement that no one in Canada waits for treatment.

You owe me an apology.

But I bet you are too weak to do it.

as I've told you a dozen times (but you are such a
scumbag that you keep on lying) there are wait times in every
health care
system, including Canada.
=======================
That's not waht you claimed earlier, until your lies were
exposed, liarman.

No, I didn't. You owe me an apology.

In fact, you will recall that you yourself posted
an article about people waiting for a specific test in
Newfoundland.
========================
Which is where you denied that Candaians are waiting for
treatment. You lied then, liarman...

As you can see above, clearly I was explaining that those people were not
waiting for treatment, they were waiting for a specific type of high tech
test.

You owe me an apology.
