Zero sum

CBC's story on the double role that the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region's head of surgery Mark Ogrady was set to play with a private surgical clinic whose very existence depends on siphoning patients away from the public system is well worth a look.

But let's note another important side to the story beyond any individual conflict of interest. After all, could we possibly ask for a more obvious example as to how private health delivery relies on poaching needed workers from the public sector, rather than adding any capacity whatsoever to our health system?
