Book
When politics comes before patients : why and how Canadian medicare is failing / Shawn Whatley, MD.
Using searing analogies and first-hand accounts, Dr. Shawn Whatley makes the argument that the current Medicare system is unsustainable and unless critical choices and changes are made soon, the publicly funded, single-payer system in Canada will implode. Whatley is the past President of the Ontario Medical Association and a physician leader with experience in emergency medicine and primary care.
