Carmel Olson, CEO of the regional health authority in Brandon, Manitoba, responded to Brock Lesnar's recent comments about Canadian Health Care via the Globe and Mail:

“The attending physician was very qualified and very respected,” she said. “He's been in the business for more than 30 years. And he has the skills to diagnose a condition such as diverticulitis without a CT scan. …We have checked this particular health record and we are quite confident that the correct diagnosis was given and the best course of treatment offered. We have state-of-art equipment here. We are hardly a one-horse operation.”
