Most Canadians think the health care system needs reform and nearly two-thirds believe that those who want to pay for better services should be allowed to, according to a nation-wide survey. The survey, conducted by the Toronto-based firm Pollara, found that 96% of Canadians believe that "substantial repairs, if not a complete rebuilding, are necessary to maintain the system's quality." The survey was conducted for Mark Frosst, a pharmaceutical company, and the Coalition of National Voluntary Organizations, a group of patients' rights agencies.
