It's obvious . . .

* that a well-educated population will better support an innovative and creative society;

* that a healthy population will better support a productive and prosperous society;

* that acting counter to those two obvious facts is, in fact, STUPID

So, given those facts, why is Canada:

* 5th out of the G8 countries in life expectancy,

* next to last in infant mortality,

* next to last in number of doctors per capita

*not even in the top five for education spending per capita or as a % of GDP, for all countries?

Harper, Ignatieff, Layton, McGuinty, et al . . . it's obvious your priorities are, shall we say, skewed
