How to spot a lying liberal:
It’s really easy actually.
If a Canadian liberal-left politician speaks in terms of the “danger” of changing our healthcare system even one iota, and the “horrors” of allowing evil private enterprise in, and claims that it will then become an “American-style” healthcare system or it will be “ruined”, they’re lying. It’s largely that simple. There are few other options. So check on that.
At the mere mention of letting private enterprise fix Canada’s healthcare system, the Liberal socialist health minister Ujjal Dosanjh said the other day that the right-wing vision of more private money in health care would destroy the universal medicare system that Canadians cherish. Destroy it, mind you. “If there is a danger to our health-care system in this country, it is the euphemism of flexibility for the provinces (and) the market reforms,” he said, with a straight face yet. As our nation’s health minister yet. He sounds like a communist to me—lamenting the possibility of “market reforms”. What capitalist-minded person fears “market reforms”? Only a communist or a socialist would want to keep out market reforms.
He said that allowing private enterprise in would inevitably result in the destruction of the current system of universally guaranteed access to medical services. “Destruction” of the universal-access system, he said, as if proving my point repeatedly. He knows for a fact that that isn’t true. And we know he isn’t stupid. So where does that leave us? I’d like to be diplomatic about it but why should I if he’s lying? Why should I even stick to facts?
He informed us that by abiding by the suggestions of what he intimates are those nefarious capitalists, “That means somebody might check your wallet before they check your pulse.” That’s a lie even in the United States. He knows that. I understand politics—but lies I cannot stand. I honestly don’t know how he can live with himself. And yet all liberals say that and perpetuate the lie.
There’s no room for equivocation from the liberals—it’s their system or the “American system”, they lyingly tell us. So we should offer no equivocation either, because they’re lying and that is a fact. And you must tell liberals that. You already know that they will call you a “scary conservative”; or “Hitler”; or “homophobic” (they always work that in nowadays); or “intolerant… of our liberal lies”; or “racist”; or any number of other liberal, well, lies. So to save time, if you find yourself in a discussion about Canada’s healthcare and the liberal you’re talking to claims our system will turn into an “American style healthcare system” in the event that we change it, they must by necessity be lying since nobody is that stupid. They just insulted you and your intelligence. Tell them that, and then leave the room because they’ll know you’re on to them, and if you stay in the room the name-calling will start flying. But not telling them that is how we got where we are today.
More likely than shear stupidity, they’re being incredibly dishonest and playing the liberal game as they’ve been trained to do by the liberals they look up to and adore like Michael Moore and Ujjal Dosanjh and Jean Chretien and every Canadian liberal politician—the unwritten liberal trick of the century—the scandal, actually, which is that in Canada, an honest debate about our healthcare system is prohibited by liberals. It is virtually impossible to have an honest debate because they refuse to stop lying to us all. And the further left they are, the more they lie.
Here are some of the reasons they lie:
Twenty-eight countries have universal access to health care just like Canada does. All but Canada, though, allow either a parallel private system to operate alongside of it, or some form of private involvement to one degree or another.
At least six of those countries have NO waiting lists.
Canada often ranks at or near the BOTTOM in terms of delivering good health care outcomes. In every category except one, Canada often ranks near the middle of the pack, but often at or near the very bottom.
The World Health Organization ranked Canada #30 in terms of the efficient delivery of health to its citizens.
Canada spends THE MOST of any of those 27 other universal-access countries on their health care system.
Canada has some private sector involvement now. All doctors are private operators and many clinics—including many abortion clinics interestingly enough—are privately operated clinics that are all publicly-funded. Abortions are taxpayer-funded at private clinics.
In another well buried survey, Canadians revealed they not only welcome more private involvement, they WANT it.
Canada is the only nation on the face of the earth that forbids, by law, its citizens from spending their own money which they earned, on their own basic health care and that of their family, except for North Korea and Cuba. We currently have, under the Liberal Party of Canada, a North Korean-style healthcare system.
The Japanese healthcare system, the French, the Swedish system—are all examples of what Canadian healthcare could look like if private enterprise was allowed into our system—and turning our nation’s healthcare system into something resembling theirs—not the American system—is what sensible people like conservatives are talking about and have been for years. Of course, after they talk about it, they’re slammed as if they’re lunatics (and “racists”, etc., somehow) by liberals in politics like Dosanjh and liberal media and liberals all around us. Yet as health minister, Ujjal Dosanjh knows all about the Japanese system. So what is he doing?
The liberal-left prohibition against having an honest debate about healthcare is really a scandal of mammoth proportions—easily matching the current Liberal Party corruption scandal and others. It’s a scandal that affects our very health and well-being and that of our families, and it affects (negatively, again) our economic health like nothing else ever has or ever will in this country. It may be the most pernicious scandal our country has ever known in its history, simply because of its implications to our health and our lives. And it’s all liberal. Prime Minister Paul Martin and every other liberal is directly implicated in this scandal. They invented the system, grew it into the hellacious mess that it is today, and mandate by Stalinist law that we stick with it against all common sense and logic and morality.
Of course they fear an honest debate because it would expose them. The liberal-left fears private enterprise and it being allowed into Canada’s healthcare system. They’re afraid of letting private enterprise in not because it won’t work, but because it will work. That’s what all socialists and communists fear.
The liberal-left has staked its entire reputation on socialist North Korean-style healthcare and other such soviet-style programs. A dishonest, deceitful debate is what they rely on completely. It’s a hell of a way to run a country but their survival depends on the lie.
Tommy Douglas, the flaming socialist who gets credit for inventing Canada’s socialist healthcare system, would look at Conservative leader Stephen Harper’s position on Canadian healthcare today and accuse him of being more a communist sympathizer than Douglas ever was. Douglas’ vision of a national healthcare program was far “right” of the Conservative Party today—far more basic, far more manageable, more sensible, more efficient. It was a mere skeleton of the failing socialist behemoth what we have today—it was a bare-bones basic system to protect people from dying in the street. It’s a scary thought that the conservatives are more left now than Tommy Douglas was back then—well actually it’s a delicious thought to the liberal-left—it’s how they work. Conservatives keep giving in more and more, the center moves left more and more, and finally we’re where the liberal-left wants us. Then they move more left.
What we have in Canada is socialism gone awry. What happened in the Soviet Union when their socialism went awry was that eventually their nation up and collapsed. For over 70 years, they claimed their failing economy was due to bad weather and crop failures. Again: crop failures. In contradistinction, the Liberals’ downfall will be their crap failure.
Liberals hate it when I mention that nearly every country has universal access healthcare and have had for decades, because they have opted to consciously lie through their teeth—right to your face—and make you think that Canada is the only country that has it today. The fact is, Canada is the only country that has mangled it so badly, which partially explains why they don’t want you to know that most all other countries have it—but hey: stop the comparisons and we look good! In actual fact, Canada’s is the most wasteful and possibly, arguably, the worst such system in all the world. That’s what’s unique to Canada. That’s where Canada leads the world, Paul (“we lead the world”) Martin, liberal.
But that the Liberal’s health minister, Ujjal Dosanjh, is so plainly deceptive about it should perhaps be no surprise at all—he’s an ex-NDP and now Liberal socialist, who, like the entire liberal-left in this country, has staked his whole political life on the liberal-left zealotry that is Canada’s socialism and its baby, the decrepit ideologically-driven healthcare system.
But political ideology aside, I’m surprised by the level of mendacity of this little man. He’s the minister of health, for goodness sake! There used to be a code of honor in the once far greater young nation of values and virtues called Canada. He should be fostering an honest debate—not mandating a lie. And make no mistake—he’s an intelligent man, he’s not stupid, and so he must therefore be lying about healthcare, as the health minister. And make no mistake—he is advocating a dishonest debate—perpetuating the lie, sticking to the unwritten but obvious liberal-left plan.
Why would a health minister risk not fixing the system or even having an honest debate about it? Why risk your health and your life and that of your family? Is their ideology, their socialism/liberalism, their lies and their power more important to them, than you and your country and your health and your family’s health?
Why yes, yes it is.
