She declined to be seen at first, but its debatable what kind of care was available if she did not.

I think there a lot of better examples than someone who signed a letter saying she was fine.

I’m sure Canadacare didn’t help and is certainly something we do not want here, but if we’re honest about how long she may have had to wait for a CT scan to be done and read even in a US hospital the tragic ending may well have been the same, except for the fact that as a celebrity she would have received priority care...

Another day same old BS. The Communists want to have forced health care.

There is no helicopter evacuation in Quebec. And no private option.

No Cat Scanner (essential for proper neurological diagnosis) in the Laurentian Mountain resort area. Nearest CAT scanner hours away in Montreal. There are more CAT scanners in you average size US city than in Quebec Province.

Why would you turn your very life over to these socialist bureaucrats?

She refused treatment. Whether or not the Canada health care system would have been able to treat her had she accepted treatment immediately will never be known. End of story. Believe it or not, people refuse treatment and die in America too.

Thanks, this might be just what the Doctor ordered to save us from socialized medicine. A doctor might have recognized the seriousness of a blow to the temple which is the usual location of an epidural hematoma. One of its features is a lucid interval after the blow. The patient say they feel OK. The hematoma didn't have enough time to grow from the enlarging blood clot, yet.

The biggest argument against Obamacare is that you can’t sue the government when they kill your loved ones, hence there’s no reason for them to care.

[machogirl]

could she have been airlifted from the first hospital immediately to a us hospital close to the border?

would than have made a difference?
