As a Canadian, I have known several people throughout my life who have died of treatable diseases because they had to wait a stupidly-long time to see specialists or have surgery.

Oh, Canada! We are a twitchy and uncomfortable elephant at present, writhing with anxiety! Someone <GOP> made a horrible mistake and our republic is under attack!

LOL citing Rob Ford as an “electoral issue” as a means of comparing Canada and the Trumpified US is like comparing a sprained ankle to a gunshot wound.
