Where to Now a Prairie Centre column urges reform of Canada's health care
In a Prairie Centre weekly current affairs column, the author argues Canada’s “free” health system is deteriorating under zero price incentives. Singapore’s Medical Service Accounts are cited as a model where individuals fund care and doctors compete, reducing wait times and costs. The piece criticizes government spendthrift, bureaucratic layers, and calls for replacing the current system with consumer funded care and market competition.
