Unfortunately, the Ruling runs roughshod over the BNA Act with its upholding of federal interference in an area of traditional provincial jurisdiction. As such, it's a victory for imposed centralism which will doubtless fan the flames of separatism in Quebec and quite possibly elsewhere as well.
Certainly, in the short run, it will give the Liberals an opportunity to crow factitiously that their hand-picked red-robed Judicial dictators have the best interests of the majority at heart but, longer term, any smart ones should rightly recall what Johnny Cochran told Marcia Clark:
"be careful what you wish for ... 'cause it might come true."
Plus, there's no real win for freedom of choice here or slap at the bloated, unaccountable socialist healthcare system - only different groups of hogs jostling for position at the same trough!
