Some Canucks tell damnable lies about their country. Shame on them

Canadians live longer than U.S. residents, and fewer of their children die in infancy. If you live in Canada, you are substantially more likely to see your 60th birthday.
Despite these positive outcomes, and despite the fact they're achieved on much less money, the Canadian health-care system has been maligned south of the border as some legislators oppose any plan to see that all Americans can get health insurance.
Of special interest to me -- and by that I mean it pisses me off -- is the help certain Canadians have lent to those in the U.S. who would use a market-worshipping philosophy to condemn fellow citizens to death for lack of health care.
Take a bow, Shona Holmes, you lying sack of shit. Or, rather, duck those rotten tomatoes coming your way. Brain tumour? Nope, a cyst. Six months from death? Not true. Ms. Holmes's testimony in a TV commercial against universal health care was a disgraceful package of mendacity.
A special walk of shame for Dr. Gratzer, a Canadian physician who pretends to understand my country's system. All he understands is that it's not anything like the market-based system he wants to see. A Democrat gave him a good smackdown, exposing Gratzer's ignorance, at a recent hearing in Washington:

Bravo, Mr. Kucinich.
Fuck you, Dr. Gratzer.
By the way ... it's nice to see Canadian opposition politicians combatting the lies in the U.S., and sad to see Canada's health minister doing nothing to set the record straight. Could her silence have anything to do with Prime Minister Harper's connection to an organization that hates medicare?
