I don't see anything immoral, unethical or illegal for a person in a democratic society to be able to spend their own money on the health care of themself or a loved one.

The Supreme Court of Canada has given prisoners the right to vote. Is it not time that non-jailed citizens were given reciprocity with a right that prisoners have namely the freedom to bypass the public system when it fails to provide reasonable access?

When it comes to physicians there is a common thread that is a major barrier to solving our concerns. We are divided. The result is a divide and conquer scenario, in which we negotiate as adversaries, first with government and then with one another about our relative worth, while the conqueror observes and continues to rule.
