I posted this on General Discussion and am repeating it here:
The ad Shona Holmes did for American right wingers was based on a lie. This ad, where Shona says she would have died in Canada with a brain cancer because the government wouldn't allow her timely treatment is a bald-faced lie.. In the first place she didn't have a brain tumor!. What she had (and the reason why she was given a few months to wait in Canada) was a condition called Rathke's Cleft Cyst, on her pituitary gland. "Rathke's Cleft Cysts are not true tumors or neoplasms; instead they are benign cysts." The medical community in Ontario, where she lives, knew this and scheduled other, urgent cases ahead of her for surgery....which is quite reasonable. Not only was this TV ad played all over the U.S.A., but she has been interviewed on Fox TV and other places, spewing her lies. I wonder how many Americans have seen this lying ad and believed it. Since she was unmasked in Canada, as a liar, we have seen nothing more of her....but apparently the anti health care people in the U.S.A. have dug her up again! P.S....At the present time I am going through some health problems and thank God I am receiving great care and I don't have to worry about bills!
