Changes to the Canadian Health Care

[Marcarl]

The Canadian Medical Association has weighed in on the new Prime Minister's health care proposals:

· The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

· The Gastroenterologists had a sort of a gut feeling about it, but the neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

· The Obstetricians felt they were all labouring under a misconception.

· Ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sighted.

· Pathologists yelled "Over my dead body!" while the Paediatricians said, "Oh, Grow up!"

· The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.

· The Surgeons were fed up with the cuts and decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.

· The ENT specialists didn't swallow it, and just wouldn't hear of it.

· The Pharmacologists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the

· Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter...."

· The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.

· The Anaesthetists thought the whole idea was a gas, but the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

· In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the asses in Ottawa.
