Earlier, I said no.
Now I inclined to believe that Canada’s health was not helpful to the late Ms Richardson. Ingrid Perez, Globe and Mail [1], offers a pretty good time line. I am less than impressed with the four hours it took to get Richardson to a trauma center.
On the counter-point, Max Harrold, Vancour Sun, argues “Socialized medicine didn’t kill Natasha Richardson, says doctor [2].”
As for me, if Barack Obama wnnts to go north of the border to seek his medical care, such is his right and choice. However, I say leave the Canadian healthcare systerm where it is, north of the border.
