Canada's death row - PittsburghLIVE.com

It certainly is not my business to tell other countries how to conduct their health care. Different countries value different things, and what may work for one nation often doesn't for another. As a result, I have no prescription for the challenges facing health care in the US. I am wise enough to know that translating the model Canadians use to the US probably just wouldn't fly.

That said, obviously some newspapers definitely feel they have things to tell us about our health care system....

Excuse me? If we're on "death row," how come Canadians have significantly better longevity? (With a harsher climate?)

We should compare the weight (mass) of average Canadian with that of the average American...
Humidity here does its trick, too, you know... And stress. War does cost a lot... ; )
