Reply #2: Harper is out to drown Canada's federal govt. in a baignoire. [View All]

His government earlier cut funding to the various health libraries in the universities in Canada, leaving funding to the institutions/provinces. Unlike the US, Canada does not have a NIH or NHL system, rather each medical school in the country acts as part of a consortium with the feds making up a great part of the budget.

Basicly, Harper argued that the US system could take up the slack!

The only thing he is afraid to touch is health care, per se.

He might as well become a board member of PNAC and the Heritage Foundation.
