CANADA AT THE CROSSROADS.

Canadians voted Tommy Douglas the Man of the Century. They did this for he stood for us as people. He put people first in the creation of a Health Care System for all Canadians. I have lived happily under this system for over 50 years.

I realize in listening to the debate that the only one really addressing people is the New Democratic Party: the NDP.

People must take back their ownership of their country. This ownership does not belong to any political party unless that party wants that too.

The very great deed that Tommy Douglas helped all of us to benefit from, the Health Care System, has been abused and become the biggest boon doggle ever perpetrated on the Citizens of Canada.

We need a proper Health Care Committee struck to examine if our system that relies on Pharmaceuticals and our current Medical Doctors is the best system to be following. We are quickly being turned into beings that cannot stay alive without their help: from vaccines to their drugs of all kinds, from Tylenol to exotic created chemicals that cost hundreds of dollars to buy onr dose.

Canadians are paying an enormous amount of every budget to support this system. Everyone is terrified of the whole system and yet is being denied more and more from seeking other ways to take care of themselves and other paradigms of healing. Only a proper Enquiry will reveal that.

We have lost our freedoms at the hands of Pharmaceuticals snf Industrial Chemical Corporations like Monsanto, Political parties and Government Departments like Health and Agriculture who have been co-opted by the power of money, from graft to the Media; all media from print to the TV Ads that sell their way into our brains and the news that speaks of them as they wish to be spoken about.

If the people of Canada want to be recognized and not just used we have to vote NDP and call for Jack Layton whether as a majority leader or the leader of a coalition to come forward in Tommy Douglas' spirit and make it better for Canadians, the poeple of the country who they represent.
