How Awesome Is Canadian Socialized Medicine?

So awesome that Danny Williams, the Premier for the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador is flying to the United States for mega serious surgery.

Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams is set to undergo heart surgery this week in the United States.

CBC News confirmed Monday that Williams, 60, left the province earlier in the day and will have surgery later in the week.

The premier's office provided few details, beyond confirming that he would have heart surgery and saying that it was not necessarily a routine procedure.

I wish the Premier good health and a speedy recovery from what ails him. But, what does it say when somebody this important in Canada has to fly out of the country to get an emergency procedure? And whither shall less important or less prosperous Canadians go if they have a health issue? Consider this nugget as the Democrats keep trying to push this sort of socialized medicine upon us.
