OTTAWA--Contrary to misleading government assurances, Canada's health care system is not fully protected from international trade agreements, namely, NAFTA and the WTO. But, if Canadian governments act soon, they can still strengthen Medicare before trade-deal threats make health care reforms too costly.
Those are the main conclusions of a major report to the Romanow Commission on the Future of Health Care prepared under the auspices of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives.
The CCPA Monitor is the only place I know that one can go to for accurate and honest reporting on the state of the world. I would hate like hell to ever be without The CCPA Monitor; it would be like losing my sight and my hearing. I heartily recommend it to anybody who gives a damn about the condition of the world.
