Belinda Stronach flew to California for reconstructive surgery, which she would have had to pay for in Canada anyway since the public system does not cover cosmetic procedures. She received her mastectomy and cancer treatment in the public health system. Big surprise she flew to California to see a plastic surgeon. There’s many things to criticize her for but hypocrisy on this issue isn’t one of them.
By the way, George Smitherman is the Ontario Minister of Health, not the Canadian Minister of Health (kinda like mistaking a Governor for the President). Tony Clement is the Federal Minister of Health.
