Immigration: Sun Care

Canadians Dept: According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information in 2010, Canadian government spending on health care was about $135 billion, according to Vancouver Sun. Care for seniors younger than 70 averages $5,800/year and increases to more than $18,000/year for those 80 and over and a vote for Ignatieff is a vote for poorer health care. Canadians older than 65 account for 14 per cent of the population but consume nearly 44 per cent of those health care dollars. As reported in the news.
