It was good to see Canadians out in the streets across the country today, sending a loud message to Stephen Harper:
Take your grubby paws off our medicare system.
On the day the Canada Health Accord died.
He has waited a long time to make his move. From the day he was first elected with the support of a group that was founded to kill medicare.
He had to restrain himself for so many years. But it was always going to be the biggest, bloodiest, and most prized trophy in his skull rack.
The one that told him the Canada he hated so much was dead at last.
And now the Con War on Medicare has finally begun.
