You have to ask yourself this: if the healthcare system is Canada is so good then why is it always the number one election issue? Every federal party and all of the provincial parties are always promising to fix the healthcare system every election. If it ain't broke what are they trying to fix?

And for all the fear-mongers trying to say that the Conservatives are pro-censorship - please provide an example of where they ever tried to censor anything or even mentioned censoring anything.
Well one thing that comes to mind is the conservatives want to pick and choose what films get funding. If they don't like the content, no funding.
