Abstract

The author, an American, examines British Columbia's health care system as it struggles to retain equity and access as two of its implacable tenets. Some sources argue that realities fall far short of the abstract ideals. Certainly implementation and funding problems are growing as B.C.'s policy makers struggle with large-scale economic pressures and management priorities. Despite the system's shortcomings, however, U.S. readers would be wise to consider the philosophical and rhetorical impact of these normative concepts. Their presence and power encapsulates the breadth of the contrast between the Canadian and American systems.
