Conservative Party Front Group Releases “Study” Promoting Privatization of Healthcare

Dear readers, I just came across a posting on an excellent blog, The Sixth Estate, which caused me great alarm. I paraphrase from the post:
A new "survey" purports to show that Canadians are unanimously enthusiastic about the privatization of healthcare and Harper’s welcoming stance toward the business sector.
This "survey", which has received appallingly credulous coverage from our nation’s media, was created by a firm called Ensight. Ensight is a lobbying firm; and it is a specifically Conservative one, with a staff chock full of Tory veterans and Harper loyalists.
This sort of report is plainly not trustworthy. This is it, folks - the opening shots of the final battle for public healthcare have now been fired.
Please click on the link to read more on this shameful shilling for the Harper Government™ by a firm disguised as a “pollster”.

  1. Thanks for the link, Ole. Unfortunately virtually every media organization seems to have passed this one through without so much as a smidgeon of independent analysis.
