Why should it fall to an American radio and television personality to solve the problems of Canadian socialized medicine?
One poor woman in our neighbor up north recently turned to Canada’s MAID program (medical assistance in dying, or assisted suicide) because she could not get a referral for a needed surgery, and the pain had become more than she could bear.
Over the past two days, TV and radio star Glenn Beck has been reaching out to assist Jolene Van Alstine of Saskatchewan to assist her. She needs surgery to remove her parathyroid gland. However, there’s no one available to do that in her home province of Saskatchewan. She can’t go see anyone outside of the province because, thanks to Canada’s socialized medicine, she’d need a referral by seeing an endocrinologist – and none of them are accepting new patients.
Americans started to come to her aid when Glenn saw the following X post on Monday, Dec. 8:
If there is any surgeon in America who can do this, I’ll pay for this patient to come down here for treatment.
THIS is the reality of “compassionate” progressive healthcare. Canada must END this insanity and Americans can NEVER let it spread here.

Glenn’s post linked to a woman who reposted part of an article from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC). The CBC is the media company supported by the Canadian government.
Over the next two days, crowd-sourced tips led Glenn’s team to Jolene’s contact information, as well as appropriate surgeons who were willing to take on her care.

Remember Obama campaigning for Obamacare: ‘maybe you don’t really need that joint replacement surgery, maybe all you need is a few more pain pills..”
The Canadian govt wants as many people as possible to opt for assisted suicide and will readily approve all, even for a hangnail. I’ll bet they sue Glenn Beck’s radio station(s).
That starts an hour "diatribe" from her on how poor the "care" in HealthCare Canada is. Many examples are like this but are from family members and friends.
