Canadian Socialism is really not socialism, it's just the 19th Temperance Lady repackaged.

There's very little public ownership involved, it's just proscriptions and prohibitions, faith based.

The NDP are in essence Bible Thumpers.

Socialized medicine
Socialized "disability insurance"... i.e. welfare
Less privatized prisons
I guess thazaboutit... Like I say... she's in the kitchen.

But it keeps the actual socialists from threatening to tear it all down...
And making a big ol' mess of it.
Unlike down south.

Without a profit incentive your socialism is going to collapse like the Soviet Union, it's just a matter of time.

Obamacare for the Swiss, or perish.

Healthcare in Canada is going to perish without a profit incentive?

How so?
