Bob from Canada who saw Micheal Moore's movie Sicko says"

Moore's (very good) movie shows France especially, but also Britain and Canada, to be comparative utopias. I expect thousands of American health refugees will soon be flooding into Canada, France and Britain after seeing "Sicko"!

Moore demonstrates how a desperate American in need of medical attention can easily
sneak into the Canadian system. An American woman is shown getting access to Cdn. medical clinics with the help of a Cdn. friend in Windsor. The patient lies and claims she's the common law spouse of the Cdn. friend. That opens all doors to free care at Cdn. taxpayers' expense.
She didn't even need to be a landed immigrant or any such thing, apparently.

At the closing credits, Moore lists a website where Americans can link up with Canadians for marriage + health care - (or something else + health care)?
I foresee a new industry developing...of Americans paying off Canucks to help Americans lie their way into the Cdn. health system. As if we can afford that as a growing trend, especially as there are ten times as many Americans as Canadians.

Ironic, isn't it? The richest country in the world produces desperate middle class medical refugees pushed potentially into attempting to defraud the Canadian system.

Hey, I'm sympathetic, but how about they fix their own broken system instead, eh?
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
