PETERS: A great week for public health, with one reminder that things can get even better
IT’S BEEN A GREAT WEEK for the public health system in Canada. No, really.
On Thursday, the B.C. Supreme Court ruled against a Vancouver clinic trying to offer wealthy patients a fast track to health care.
Justice John Steeves found Dr. Brian Day’s clinic offering patients a chance to pay to skip the lines would, in fact, result in damage to the universal healthcare system.
