Default Canadians F!rked again

Straight goods. Not the usual Davey HorseSh!t

Baby Walkers ane now banned fron sale in Canada. You know, those devices on wheels that allow a kid to either sit or toddle around before it can realy locomote on its own.

Maybe Davey should collar all the used ones he can find and sell them on the Black-Market. The worst they can do is deport me as an undesireable alien and I'm leaving this over-regulated paradise soon anyway. It would save me the fare!!!

The rationale of course is that kids are 'walking` to cooking stoves and checking out what those nice red whirly things are and falling down stairs.

But it isn't the walkers that they should ban. It's dumb f!rkin parents.

But the coming into force of this ridiculous law is an ominous event.

Davey wonders if the next thing on the Kanadian Police State agenda might not be training wheels on kids bikes.

And how would we do that (it may not be a bad idea)? Here are some
suggested categories of parents to ban made in the spirit of creating a
kinder, more gentle world (aka, A New World Order) ;-)

1. Couples who are members of guilt inducing religions. E.g.. Most Christian
and Islamic denominations.
2. Couples who are registered Republicans.
3. Couples who are self-described Progressives.
4. Couples living in trailers (double wides excluded)
5. Couples in which one or both are from the Philadelphia area.
6. A couple of which Tom K. is one part.
7. Couples who cycle without cycling helmets (except for residents of Ottawa
who will be encouraged to have multiple children who will be required to
have organ donor cards)
8. A couple, either of whom, posts anonymously to Usenet.

Don't you know that every f!rking American Liberal thinks that Canada is the
People's Paradise? After all they have that wonderful health coverage for
evreyone. That's why Canadians flock across the borders into the medical
facilities in this super expensive USA.

Good call on leaving out those of the Jewish faith in this one. It is well
known that guilt is not known to those growing up in Jewish households.

First they came for the helmetless riders, and I didn't speak up,
because I wore a helmet
Then they came for Alfonso Gagliano, and I didn't speak up, because darn
it, I wanted to see him go down!
Then they came for the baby walkers, and I didn't speak up, because I
didn't have kids yet
Then they came for the junk food, and I didn't speak up, because I was
in training
Then they came for the cyclists, and by that time there was no one left
to speak up for me.

But did they come for Svend Robinson, MP? Noooo! The only saving grace
is that I moved out of his riding four years ago.

I uh, need some bike time.

Mea culpa. A major oversight on my part. Not that I'm feeling any real
guilt about it. Then again, Jesus was a Jew, so I should be covered anyway.

It's always so nice to see the reason that Lafferty has to move from state
to state so often.

You can only tell him it's ok, and not to worry.......we'll try again later
so many times before the frustration boils over.

Take a look at http://www.civitas.org.uk/pdf/Canada.pdf

While there are indeed many delays and other problem in proviidng services,
the overall outcomes for patients is better in Canada than in the US or UK.

Then why is the UK looking at the US HMO model, not the Canadian system for
ideas?

You seemed to have skipped this point.

No, I made no comment on many points in the report. The here may be some
parts of the HMO model that can be imported into the UK and Canadian
systems. The US would, IMO, do much better with the current system of
medical care delivery with a single payer as opposed to over 1600 for-Profit
health care providing insurance companies. But....money talks in US
politics, so it's unlikely to happen
