He was a devout Baptist minister who ran for office and preached that all of Canadian society had a responsibility to one another. It was this man, a Baptist minister, who drafted the first provincial health care system to cover all Canadians in his province and taught Christian principles to the entire nation by example in public policy. Soon provinces throughout Canada began passing their own systems and eventually Canada had a national system that attempts to cover all. It's not perfect...any Canadian will tell you that...but the vast majority of Canadians would gladly take their system over ours.
Rev. Tommy Douglas was a world changer, because he was an advocate of the struggling and Christian voice in national policy.
Ron, you're Canadian...how do you feel about this? |
Welll, for Canada it seems to work.
The US will have to work out it's own Healthy plan.
However, are system is not as Socialized as some think.
I still pay $108 a month in premiums.
