Canadians lead longer, healthier lives than Americans

Compared to their neighbours south of the border, Canadians live longer,
healthier lives. Research published in BioMed Central's open access
journal Population Health Metrics has found this disparity between the
two countries, suggesting that America's lack of universal health care
and lower levels of social and economic equality are to blame.

Probably true but for the assumption it is health care.

Fewer Canadians can afford drugs, weed, booze and smokes. Lower wages,
higher gasoline costs and higher taxes make us walk more.

More excercise shoveling snow as few of us can afford snow blowers. And
we get more snow. Many row canoes because they be cheaper than 225 HP
inboards.


If we were having this conversation in a different context the left
would say it is because the Canadians don't have 100,000,000 (one for
each of BPs oppressed middle classers) guns.

Funny how the argument will change depending on the agenda.
I have already presented data that the uninsured really just die in a
rate of a couple more per 100,000, a statistical dead heat,
particularly when you take out the guns, drugs and lifestyle
differences.

So many variables for the difference, you know making it "health care"
is BS. Pure utter BS. But there is the gullable weak minded who don't
question other peoples motives for such bull****.

Ya, we have gun control. Criminals and government have them but the
honest sheep...not as many. Many believe it is why we have twice as
many house break in per capitata. That and the turnstile justice for
the crime.

And would bet you are more likely to get knifed in Canada. In fact
blood is drying as I speak on one of the public transit platforms in
this so called safe city. I think I felt safer in Chicago.

This one is fresh off the press. Knives have the advantage of being quiet.

Even had stuff like people runnign a SUV into a bar....

People kill people. Guns, cars, bats, knives, hatchets, poison are just
the tools.
