View Full Version : It's All Abooot Us!
" A new study by the Fraser Institute says the number of doctors per capita will drop over the next decade unless Canada relies on foreign-trained physicians.
The study released in Calgary says government restrictions on education and training have caused the problem, which will only get worse between now and 2015.
The study urges governments to allow more qualified Canadian students access to medical training to ease the reliance on foreign doctors.
The doctor shortage has grown in recent years after provincial governments in the 1980s cut back the number of people allowed into medical school.
The Fraser Institute concludes that Canada's reliance on foreign- trained doctors is forcing poorer countries, such as South Africa and India, to make do with fewer physicians."
"Dear Africa and India (and other poorer countries in desperate need of doctors):
We hope you are feeling alright. Not so much because we actually care aboooot you, but because if you don't feel alright, well then, you're SOL!
You see, because of our broken and antiquated health system, we have no doctors. Most of our doctors go to the U.S., where they can actually make a good living, and are paid what they deserve. Our broken socialist system doesn't allow doctors to get paid what they deserve. As such, we're taking your doctors!
So, toughen up there, poor people of the world. We're making you pay because we're too bull-headed to admit our health system has collapsed.
It's all abooot us!
Love,
Canada"

No doubt our health care system is in big trouble.Our government better wake up and adopt a more efficient system.

Good point Tiny Tim. I guess they don't train enough either. So lower US taxes give most americans enough money to pay Canadian doctors the big bucks to go down there. Hmmm.

Why do americans come on soonet or anywhere else where Canadians are and do nothing but trash them?
Personally, I'm not a large fan of americans as a whole, but I'm not harassing you folks to the end of time with it.
You're annoying and ignorant. Stop being "so american".

Well seriously, what makes you think you're better? Most of your posts include putting Canadians down. I'm tired of the ignorance.
You're nothing special.
Oh, no one puts Americans down in here.
Geez, what was I thinking?
Canadians try to make themselves feel better and superior by comparing themselves with Americans.
That's a losing proposition, sunshine, and I'm here to show you why /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

We don't need to compare ourselves to a crappy nation darling. Canadians rock just the way we are. And those who feel the US is better, well my question to them then "WHY are you still here?" Go! Don't let the border hit ya on your way out /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
While it may be cold here, I'll enjoy a country that isn't full of psychopaths, serial killers, hatred and war /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif
Canadians are happy people, and I would rather the rest of the world smile at me then spit at me (like americans /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif )

We'll just ignore the fact that on a per-capita basis, you're one of the most drugged people on earth for depression.
Happy, happy, joy, joy!! /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif
And you can ignore the fact that your in a failing society filled with crime, hand guns and the ozarks.
Happy Happy joy joy...
