It ain't EXACT.
You keep, on purpose, ignoring 5.5 million folks, their families and their futures.
Why?
Moving on.....
The rearview mirror, hindsight and monday morning quarterbacking?
Don't fix the millions getting getting rear ended on the "week end".
Let's address the 5.5 mil ?
What's your plan...?

"In 2013, a typical Canadian family of four can expect to pay $11,320 for public health care insurance."
"Despite talk of wait times reduction initiatives (backed with substantial funding), Canadians face longer wait times than their counterparts in other developed nations for emergency care, primary care, specialist consultations, and elective surgery."

what I've proven is that the site works, the process works, and that sooner or later the whiners and naysayers are going to look pretty stupid. Dog smiles just fine, but, he's old and the molars are starting to go on him(and yes, he always has had bones for teeth cleaning, it's sort of a breed trait). If he REALLY shows his front teeth, he ain't smiling, and it's best to move back a few feet.
