Canadian healthcare isn't perfect but it is adequate. The government needs to stop thinking that the 'cure' is privatization. Its always going to need more tax dollars and in order to make the system better, we need to increase those tax dollars. I hope we never allow privatization. It will be the beginning of the end.

Like any form of 'social' system, it is the rich who do not want to pay for the poor. The rich would rather spend those tax dollars on their own healthcare. If we strive to become a compassionate nation, privatization would be a step in the wrong direction.
