Frankly, all of the hullabaloo in the States makes me want to laugh, because of how the new health-care reform is being portrayed: left wing, bleeding-heart liberal, and so on. I laugh because in Canada--well, universal health care is our status quo, and would even be considered conservative. Our left/right wing are apparently measured differently from the US; we use the meter stick, and they the yardstick. :)
