The Race to Save Medicare in Canada

It’s taken years to get us into the mess in health care. And it will take more than an election cycle to get us out. The author of a new book on public health care is trying to sound the alarm about the “fixes” that some jurisdictions are proposing to allow private health services. Catherine Mac Neil is a thirty year veteran who is still a Registered Nurse and a teacher. Her book is titled Dying to be Seen. And she is sounding the alarm over the risk of losing the entire system to Neo-Liberalism and privatization that won’t help the sickest people who may also be the poorest people.
