About
Some painful news: Canada no longer has the best health-care system in the world.
How might we fix Canada's health-care system? Why would we want to? What's stopping us from doing so? These three questions lie at the heart of this in-depth exploration of one of the biggest political and personal issues facing Canadians.
Skyvington explains why change has to occur, in light of the implications of doing nothing, and describes how Canadians can and must get involved to save our health-care system.
'This May Hurt a Bit' is meant to provide a blueprint for change once those in charge finally acknowledge the most inconvenient truth - namely, that Canada's health-care system is in poor health.

"One part memoir, two parts jeremiad, This May Hurt a Bit demands a discussion on healthcare. Skyvington pokes, prods, and provokes until he gets the debate Canadians need."
Shawn Whatley, MD, past president of the Ontario Medical Association, author of No More Le
"For decades, Stephen Skyvington has seen Canadian health care through the eyes of doctors, politicians, and as a patient. He knows what's wrong with our system and what it needs to once again become the best in the world."
Dr. Douglas Mark
"Skyvington has seen the decline of Ontario's health care from every perspective, including a stint as an insider at the Ontario Medical Association. He is not one to pull punches, and this book is no exception. Every doctor should read this book. So should every patient. And it will hurt a bit."
