The decline of Canada's health system-the full story

Colleen Fuller gives the reader the history of the Canadian medicare system from the Canada Health Act .and even before. She then chronicles how it is now starting to fall apart, and who is responsible. Most Canadians will find this book an eye opener because it will all seem so new to them. They are not used to getting bills for medical services rendered in their lifetime ,and in most provinces the people are walking around half dazed and feel helpless. This book will arm them with some valuable information. It is written by a truly dedicated professional.As a medical/health Journalist I read and write a lot of stuff, but I rarely write reviews. I was moved to do so for this wonderful book.
