The Health Care Movie
Attention Advocates: Late notice just received that The Health Care Movie is coming back to Corvallis, showing at the Darkside Theater this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings at 7 pm. If you missed it earlier this year, it's worth making an effort to fit it into your schedule now. The Darkside is sharing the profits with Mid-Valley Health Care Advocates - thank you, Paul!
The Health Care Movie: "In Canada, healthcare is regarded as a social service, and treated as a responsibility of the government, to be provided to every citizen.
Not so in the United States. In America, health care is regarded as a profit-making commodity, to be operated for the financial gain of insurance and pharmaceutical companies, doctors and hospitals.
This documentary considers how it came to be that the two systems ended up in such different places.. It explores the health care system in Canada: how it came to be, how it works for ordinary Canadians, how it is paid for, and how it compares to its American counterpart."
