Once some social programs are in place, it is very difficult to cancel it off. Something like universal healther, and bilingal. They have became staples of this country, nobody can dare to challenge them. Health care system will be not working some day, but before that day tax payers have to continuely inject money. It can not be resolved overnight by electing a conservative government. Even Mike Harris, a bold conservative, did not private the health care - and under his governance, Ontario Health spendign increase 25% every year - too many people abuses and too many new immigrants. People in Canada more like the ideology than facts. Another thing is the bilinguism, which Canadian are always proud of , virtually kills the opportunity to become a distinguished politician if he was not born in Quebec, and waster a lot of money in this country even people, except these in Quebec, can communicate freely without any involvement of French.
