Sally C. Pipes understands Canadian health care. As the former assistant director of the free‐market Fraser Institute, she lived under Canada’s national health care system and has researched it extensively.
The Canadian experience with national health care has produced waiting lines, rationed care and has not produced the preventive and patient‐focused care that it has promised, says Pipes, who is now president of the Pacific Research Institute and author of the new book, The Top Ten Myths of American Health Care.
She spoke at the Cato Institute July 15, 2009.
