Maybe because, unlike, say, the Haters Inc.'s latest homegrown shill, Ms. Shona Holmes, who had a benign cyst, this particular Canadian actually had a real brain tumour with the potential for rapid spread that required immediate surgery, radiation and chemotherapy - and they got all three:
Five years ago I was rushed to hospital with severe head pains. A scan revealed a serious life-threatening brain tumour (glioblastoma). So I was immediately admitted to the Trillium Centre in Mississauga where surgery was performed to remove as much of the tumour as possible. After I was released from hospital I was referred to the Juravinski Cancer Centre in Hamilton where I was immediately started on radiation and oral chemotherapy treatment.
The fact that I am alive today is a testament to the prompt, effective, excellent treatment I received under the Canadian health care system.
Our thanks to 'pale' at A Creative Revolution who is really taking this one to the streets, in all its incarnations both North and South of the 49th parallel for this one too.

And here is a great post by one of those FDLer's to their legislator.
The good folks at 'The Political Carnival' are also doing a great job on this issue down south as well.
And Canuckleheads, this is not just an issue for our good friends to the south...The dismantlers are working both sides of the border in an effort to get us too.
For local Lotuslandian readers, Paul Willcocks has really being digging into the current dismantler-friendly provincial government's surrogate-assisted pushing of the two-tiered envelope.
