Uneducated electorate

[c9]

You know what's unfortunate? The 31,990,000 Canadians (roughly) who won't bother to read the NDP's 2006 platform.

(it's also unfortunate that about 31,980,000 Canadians will also ignore the other parties' platforms.)

One of these days I should really take a close look at the healthcare systems in Sweden and France. Neither is exclusively public, but both of them are highly ranked internationally. Of course, being immediately adjacent to the US causes a few problems of our own, but I do think healthcare reform has to be a bit more thorough than a cursory change here or there.

I wonder how much the higher taxes play into the stability of their system? Because we would not be able to win that argument in North America...
