"While one might expect hordes of auto workers massing outside local recruitment centres, a scenario that has been reported in the United States, the military says it hasn't seen any such trends and doesn't expect to."

Yeah... we're all shocked.

The Canadian system is based upon rationing. The system's hope is that you'll die before needing treatment, thus shortening that darn "queue."

Queue maintenance, not healing, not the individual's pain and suffering, is the focus of the system.
