Excluded from hospital insurance

on Tuesday, 01 December 1959. Posted in Diverse Articles

From the newspaper, Evangeline, of September 23, 1959:

"Dr. H.F. MacKay, a member of the commission which administers the natio- nal hospital insurance plan in Nova Scotia, said today that patients who have received dental treatment and drunkards constitute the greatest number of rejects among those who go to the commission seeking reimbursement for hospital expenses. He added that while he recongnized the necessity of helping alcoholics, still it must be understood that hospitals are not the places for sobering up such individuals."

Well, it didn't take them long to find a category of sick to exclude from the care given by the hospital insurance law. If someday, the commission decides that the birth rate is too high it simply has to exclude all pregnant mothers from the benefits of the state health insurance scheme. This is what happens when the state (that is, the army of petty officials and bureaucrats) gets control of what rightly belonge to the individual and is his concern and no one elses.


MONTREAL: The Mercantile Bank of Canada which began operations in this country5 1⁄2 years ago with assets of $2,000,000 has boosted this figure to near $40,000,000. today. The new bank has branches in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.
