When Politics Comes Before Patients : Why and How Canadian Medicare is Failing

“Extremely well written…This book should be a wake-up call for [politicians] and for the public that elects them. Every potential patient (that means everyone) and every politician should read it.”
…Thus, decades of cuts around the margins, centralized control, federal/provincial infighting, and government oversight has left doctors and hospitals with little input on how your health dollars are allocated and spent. Citizens are being left to languish in pain for months, sometimes years, because the current cost and delivery system is programmed for the benefit of governments staying in power.
