Missed the connection on how that occurs. Not arguing, just trying to
understand the specific connection.
Thanks.


Canadians have a tendency to blame all their problems on the US. This is
the first time, however, I've heard a Canadian blaming the looming
failure of their health care system on the US.



Not true, we blame almost everything on ourselves. The Canadian
pysche tends to be neurotic and lacking in self-confidence. The US
example is usually trotted out as the saviour, not the cause. You
should read the Toronto Sun newspaper -- it loves everything US and
can't wait to replicate it in Canada.
