"SNIP.......



Former U.S. president Jimmy Carter received medical attention for dehydration while in Winnipeg on Thursday, where he is helping build a Habitat for Humanity home.

The statement from the organization said that Carter was being rehydrated in hospital, and his wife was with him.

A Habitat volunteer told CBC News he saw Carter, 92, collapse after he'd been working in the sun for about an hour, using a handsaw to cut wood for a staircase.

Carter's bodyguards rushed over and carried him to a nearby vehicle. Shortly afterwards, firefighters and paramedics were seen scrambling, and an ambulance arrived.

(Friday) He's out of hospital and back building for habitat for humanity.

1. Glad he is doing better according to other reports & I may get banned for saying this

But I am almost grateful Carter was in Canada when he collapsed. Right now I think they have the better system.

3. Well the US has some of the best hospitals in the world but Canada has the better system.

All our hospitals in Canada are pretty dam fine though.

5. President Carter was building houses & trump was making a woman uncomfortable.

Both in public, both living their characters.
