Just watched the movie Sicko last night. Watched all the special features on it afterwards too. I have to say that i feel fortunate being a Canadian. And good for the Brits and the French. Even Taiwanese are catching up.
The movie was on during the Toronto Film Festival, and all the health care workers were allowed in to see the movie for free. I missed that chance and have been dying to see it ever since. Gotta say that the movie had its limitations on some details, but it got its message across, that's the most important thing. As a health care worker, i can't help but to sympathize the ones who have to work in the field in the US. Again, i am lucky to be living in Canada. Save medicare!!!

Even though I enjoyed Sicko as well, gotta say Michael Moore sometimes bends the truth to fit his story. In the movie, he's saying how superior Canadian health care is and the wait time is short, in London... Yeah, he should visit North York General's emergency room...
like i said, a lot of details were not fully addressed, but overall he met his goal which is to make his movie dramatic and get the americans to listen.
every filmmaking does this.... i must say. It's his/her perspective on things...and we all know how vastly different our views can be in life...
there is no absolutely 'fact' out there... =)
btw, dh...i email the link of our slideshow to my co-workers....they kept asking me who the photographer is...should i start handing out biz card for ya?? =)
