Until some years ago I would streamline everything, I would
have a job to do and I would streamline it making sure there wouldn't be any repetitive
or duplicate work, and the job would be well documented so that it could be maintained
for any future need. Today, I don't streamline anything and I tell my sons James
and Rico to be redundant in their life as life is really a metaphor of metaphors,
the more metaphors you can make about anything and the happier everybody is. |

- Therefore, there is no quick fix for anything which
is wrong, what is needed is the opportunity to understand and learn as many metaphors
as possible. Our health care system is eroding and Premier Ralph Klein of
Alberta has his own plan to fix it and Premier Lorne Calvert has another plan
to fix it, and in the meantime Roy Romanow is touring Canada and the world
to come up with the best health care model to fix our health care system. The major
focus of all the proposed quick fixes for health care is more money from Ottawa and
the degree of privatization.

- The "Wellness" health care model implemented
by Roy Romanow in Saskatchewan didn't work, and therefore health care gurus have
invented the new promotional term "primary health care." Roy Romanow
will be entertaining a dialogue with all Canadians through the Internet and special
evidence based surveys will be prepared where respondents will key their answers
on a scale one to ten, one being "I absolutely agree" and ten "I absolutely
disagree." Roy Romanw's final report will be wrapped up with the Canadian flag,
would include the evidence based average and standard deviation for each question
of the surveys, and would be marketed under the inventive name "primary health
care" for all Canadians.
