Continuing our critique of Canada’s socialized health care system, we feature compelling insights from Dr. Tom Dorman, a physician who fled both the British and Canadian systems. Dorman rightly defines true insurance as voluntary asset protection against catastrophe\u2014not the compulsory, taxpayer-funded scheme masquerading as “health insurance” today. Mandatory coverage, he argues, reduces patients to mere chattels, valued only until treatment becomes uneconomical, much like cattle on a farm.<\/p>\n

The incoming CMA president, Brian Day, claims to inject “market principles” into the public system while insisting full privatization is impossible. This contradiction exposes a deeper flaw: genuine markets thrive on voluntary exchange, not coerced taxation. Day’s approach merely rearranges the deck chairs on a sinking collectivist ship.<\/p>\n

Shifting to another form of taxpayer plunder, arts organizations lobby politicians for forced funding, equating their subsidies to health care entitlements. John Tory enthusiastically obliges, promising multi-year commitments and councils to “nourish” culture. Yet culture flourishes through voluntary support, not government coercion. The Freedom Party correctly condemns this as morally repugnant\u2014theft disguised as benevolence.<\/p>\n

Finally, we examine Nazism’s collectivist roots. Adolf Hitler’s regime built a popular welfare state financed by plundering Jews and conquered nations. The National Socialist German Workers’ Party delivered “benefits” through altruism and sacrifice for the collective\u2014principles echoing modern statism. Hitler’s vaunted Aryan superiority rested not on intellect or strength, but on willingness to self-sacrifice for the community.<\/p>\n

Recognizing collectivism’s destructive patterns in health care, arts funding, and historical tyranny offers the perspective that is just right.<\/p>\n
