Jim, I'm an Objectivist--not a mystic!"

I love Canada. From Rush, Sarah McLachlan, Dale Hunter (hockey), and SCTV to the Kitchener Rangers...it's a fine country. One giant advantage for Canada is that they needn't worry much about having an Army. They do have one and I'm sure there are honorable badass killers among them. But they don't much need an Army because: who is gonna attack Canada? The US would stomp anyone that tried it and everybody knows that. It's just not gonna happen. And so Canada is in a protected position which offers them the luxury of bullshitting themselves about how moral they're gonna be with their comrade's money. That's how all the socialist crap starts. Maybe Rex is right.
Go Edmonton!
The Canada Health Act
What most Canadians don't know is that the Canada Health Act doesn't explicitly forbid compeitition with the Public system. Canadians should have the right to opt out of the public system. They should be able to buy private health insurance, or pay-as-they-go. This is the position of the Freedom Party Of Ontario.
