Here is a TED talk that you also might want to look at.
It goes along with my philosophy after practicing medicine for over 20 years.

Would you happen to have a youtube link of the video? The one you gave me doesn't work!
Sorry about that. Try this one:
Thanks!
I don't know how exactly breast and prostate cancer in Canada are treated but when I compare it to how we treat them here in Europe, he appears to be making some over-generalisations, especially with prostate cancer. In the two countries that I have practised medicine so far, a prostatectomy is a rare surgery. Most men with prostate cancer die of other causes before their cancer kills them. Of course the case for breast cancer is slightly different since there is radiation involved. Even though there are definitely false positives, the rate of women dying from breast cancer has decreased substantially and that is because of increased awareness and screening. Patients should always be made aware of all the side effects of any medical procedure they go through and it should be up to them to decide whether to have it or not.
Living in the U.S. I can tell you it is all about the money. Just take a look at the numbers of vaccines given in comparison to the rest of the world. And this is 2009 data. Government sites try to dress it up but you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear. When I practiced it was all about "upselling" how much money can be made on the backs of citizens. DISREGARD SIDE EFFECTS!!!
