Of course, a Gallup poll in May '93 found that 55% of Canadians expect their  
standard of living to decline over the next 20 years.  Only 23% expected it to  
improve.  I don't think this is unrelated to health care and other government  
spending in Canada.  Canada, like the U.S., has been far more taxpayer money  
than it's taking in.  Medical care in Canada is being seen as a target for  
cutbacks (source WSJ 8/27/93 pg. 1).  So it would seem, that the situation up  
north is not as rosy as some would have us believe.

America doesn't need any more socialism; Canadian or otherwise.
