The Calgary Sun - Deal-breaker: "AIDS Calgary told Kaufmann about 22% of their clients are immigrants, and a spokeswoman there acknowledged there might be a backlash from Canadians worried about this added burden on an already beleaguered public health-care system.
Well, no kidding.
Let the backlash begin and let it not be sidetracked by the inevitable, mindless, sentimental blathering about compassion and moral responsibility to others that this debate will engender.
I've got loads of compassion.
You know who I feel sorry for?
I feel sorry for the senior whose declining years are reduced to a pain-filled prison because she can't get a hip replacement in timely fashion because there's not enough money or efficiency in the health-care system."
