Dave
Dutchak
At a time when our political and business leaders are portraying themselves as the defenders

of one-tier public health care, we have in Dave Dutchak, a new visionary of health care reform.

Dave Dutchak is the head of the province's largest ambulance service⁽¹⁾ and he has recently

expressed the lightning vision that the future of health care lies in a partnership between

business and government.

business partnership
The business partnership with SAIC and SAP have not been enough to drain our health

resources in the past⁽²⁾, and Dave Dutchak is looking into additional future partnerships

between business and government so that we can bring a new vision to health care.

new
vision
Dave Dutchak says that this new vision for health care should parallel the lightning vision

the synchrotron⁽³⁾ will bring to Saskatoon when thousands of researchers from all over the

world will come to Saskatoon and be blinded by the synchrotron's beams of light that are

billion times more powerful than x-rays⁽⁴⁾. Never mind if our health care is deteriorating

and that our aboriginal young people are dying⁽⁵⁾; our health is in our future and well

protected by the vested interests of ever bigger businesses, ever inept and corrupted

governments, and ever biased reductionist evidence based researchers.

Simard
New visions and fundamental changes start with the way we think, with the way we are

able to transform ourselves and learn; therefore, Dave Dutchak's new vision for health

care is as good as the 'New Vision for Health' expressed by former minister of health

Louise Simard in 1992, and as good as the 'Caring For Medicare' researched by the

one-man Saskatchewan Commission on Medicare⁽⁶⁾, Ken Fyke.

Stephen Covey, a management scientist, explains how fundamental changes are created:

Change - real change - comes from the inside out. It doesn't come from hacking at the leaves of attitude and behavior with quick fix personality ethic techniques. It comes from striking at the root - the fabric of our thought, the fundamental, essential paradigm, which give definition to our character and create the lens through which we see the world.
