infected the body politic with hateful anti-American views and nation-destructive ideas. The entire Democratic Party, plus many Republicans, have been invaded and infected by these ideas. They just repeat them over and over to the detriment of the United States. The bad news? It is very difficult to detect that we have been infected until it is too late. This virus may force us to learn to live with our currently infected political system indefinitely. But, Savage knows what needs to be done in order to bring the government and country back to health. Bestseller. 2016.Par Ezra Levant. 2009

son enfant. Toujours aussi attaché aux valeurs de solidarité, d'universalité et d'équité qui le guidaient dans les années 70, il invite ici à un constat très sévère sur la façon dont les soins sont prodigués au Québec. Force est de constater que notre système de santé connaît de sérieux problèmes. Il ne fonctionne pas comme il devrait eu égard aux besoins des Québécois et aux énormes ressources que nous y consacrons.
