Not quite true there ... the rich, and that means us too, as citizens of rich countries, always have a much better chance of surviving natural disasters ... and if Ebola ain't "natural" I'll eat my shorts.

Imagine the headline: "Floods in Bangladesh: Thousands Dead and Missing." And in the catastrophic floods in Calgary and surrounding area: Four. We are equipped to deal with shiiite. Because we have the bucks to buy the equipment.

There have been no recorded cases of Ebola in Canada. But in all regions there are world class designated medical facilities ... Kingston General is one, by the way ....all geared up to treat cases of Ebola that will never appear. So, I guess if I get Ebola, I won't end up sleeping on a floormat in some fly infested backwater hovel.

And the rich always have the option of leaving.
