Yes and the Drs are employees of the Canadian Gov, employed to make
those decisions.

Now you see, the discussion can't move much beyond this point because
doctors in Canada are NOT employees of the government. Every doctor I
have ever had has had his own PRIVATE practise. They pay the office
rent. They pay the receptionist. They pay the nurse. They pay the heat,
light, and other utilities. They have no pension plan. They have no
dental plan. They are full-fledged entrepreneurs.
Unless you accept that fact, we cannot continue the conversation.
Whereever did you get the idea that they are civil servants?

Perhaps it is important to point out that their practice is regulated by
government, but then, so are most medical practices in modern countries. The
differences between systems comes in the terms of those regulations.
But, Tinkerntom, you should know that doctors are most definitely not
employees of the Canadian government.
