Don't need to read it again. Upon first hearing of this subject this morning it appeared that it was the province of Quebec that was attempting to change the law so they could make moves toward the two-tier system of health care.
But as the morning wore on I found this article....

It was this article that talks about Quebec being involved....

... which indicates that there is no movement towards a two-tier system (which I oppose) but rather towards more insurance options for Canadians.
In another thread I also posted that I would rather see a user fee for people who go to the ER for non-emergancy treatments. A $5 or $10 userfee or the choice to go to a walk-in clinic. That would bring in some needed revenue for health care and still preserve the system we have now, which as far as world standards goes is pretty damned good.
