Thank you, Michael, for opening our eyes. I have also been turned away for medical treatment (heart condition) because I have no insurance, or money.This is so wrong, & inhumane to put a price on human life. Please keep up the good work, we need u.

In the TV Nation book it does say that the network changed the winner because a "commie" country winning would lower ratings.

Only in America is it illegal to "hire willing cheap labor" but it IS legal to stay sick and die b/c you are too poor/under insured, etc.!

GO CANADA!! proud to be Canadian...our doctors are fantastic! Michael Moore is great.

According to ... ( 7 months ago by lactoseme)

According to Michael Moore, Cuba won the competition but the network would not allow that, so they made Canada the winner. Ah, "freedom of speech!" Just look at the footage and it's obvious Cuba had the most difficult injury and took acre of it the fastest with no cost to the patient.

I agree... You ... ( 4 months ago by SirBroadsword)

I agree... You can't really factor in speculation as to wether or not Cuba will be able to keep up its standards (I think Sicko demonstrates that it has) in the future... At the time, the Cuban hospital simply gave their paitent the best care, regardless of wether they could do the same five or ten years down the track...

Scary that only in ... ( 3 months ago by Khomradeigor)

Scary that only in America there is a persistign debate of whats best in healthcare. Most other countries have accepted that Socialized medecine is by far the best alternative.

Yeah, there's an ... ( 3 months ago by crock703)

Yeah, there's an interview with Moore conducted by Democracy Now's Amy Goodman where he explains how NBC first barred him for showing Cuba as the winner, then deceitfully edited Canada into 1st place before air time. Clever idea. I have to say though, its totally deceptive to say that Cubans pay nothing. They're nearly fully taxed, so they pay for their medical service before their paycheck arrives, not at the hospital. Clever and probably stirs peoples' minds, but not honest.
