Apparently, though... we have enough money to feed, house and educate...

...25,000 people from halfway around the globe...
Rather than having Dr. Carl Emond - an award winning vascular surgeon who was working at the hospital on the day in question - attempt to save the man's life, he was sent by ambulance to the MUHC "superhospital" where he died before having the operation.

"You don't have time to be transferred to another hospital" the staff member said. "You don't just stop doing a surgery."
NatPo has more...
What is especially galling, say hospital staff, is that a highly regarded surgeon was on duty at St. Mary’s on the day the man walked into the ER complaining of abdominal pain. The surgeon wanted to operate but told the ER team that he was no longer allowed to perform such operations. The patient, in his mid-’70s and at that point unconscious, was turned away, transferred to an ambulance and rushed to the "superhospital" of the McGill University Health Centre. He arrived at the Glen site, but died before he could have the surgery.

Wynners and Losers, huh?

LAST WORD: Public Transit... more like public nuisance...
The $600 million Edmonton train that snarls traffic, slows down transit times and increases emissions.
I got nuthin'.
