And the problem is? I thought liberal Canadians cherished free medicine...for everyone.

Parkland Hospital(one hospital) here in Dallas, TX delivered over 10,500 babies last year to illegals at a cost of over 50million to taxpayers. So, this story is no big deal.

free health care

I don't see why this is a problem. Socialist countries offer "free health care" all the time. Look at Cuba! If Hillary were president, we'd have unlimited health care and it wouldn't cost us a dime!

"look at every angle" for new methods to recover monies owed by those who have skipped out on paying.

Dig deep you socialist of the north.

Exactly. It falls into the "be careful what you wish for..." category.

Canadian health care is not "free". In fact, the average Canadian who makes $60,000 pays about $18,000 a year in taxes for it.
That's the "free" health care leftist here want.

I know, but who cares about the details when it sounds soooo good to say UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE.

He ought to come down here and look at the numbers.

We could easily multiply his sissy figure by 1,000!

In Canada, foreigners are required to pay the full cost of medical care when in the country. It is stated as a condition of entry. And Medicare is certainly not free to those who are not Canadian citizens. That's why B.C is seeking to recover its expenses owed.

(The Palestinian terrorist regime is the crisis and Israel's fist is the answer.)

The term wetback is sooooooo deragatory, I prefer the term humid posteriers.
