Canada will let you die slowly if you have cancer and you hit a certain age .
We have helped relatives get care here that was denied in Canada based on age .
Most those countries you listed the system denies you care
Unless you have the perfect demographic and can survive the wait to get treated . Like cancer .
Most op for private hospital care and pay out of pocket . Canada is one if the few that bans private hospitals . Awful health-care system .
Horseshit....it works.....provided it is introduced incrementely....cannot ram it down the public throat.....in Canada it took 10 years to fully transition. It is still being tweaked and is far from perfect but nobody falls through the cracks and nobody fears financial disaster. The system is now becoming much more pro-active, preventative and innovative. All the whoohaw about Canadians being forced to go to the US for treatment is more B.S. ...they do for medically elective health care treatment like plastic surgery or hip replacements. However those requiring urgent care get it when needed...it is the law.
You call hip replacements elective?
Aww, you know, elective surgery like cancer, kidney stones, back surgery, cataracts, stents, bypasses - we go to the US for that and pay US rack rate prices . . .
Everybody I know who got a hip replaced did it as a last resort and lived through the rehab too. Knees too.
It doesn’t work, in the UK either. Works for Deadpool and Superman.
Obama care was a poorly thought out hybrid hastily implemented and was politically motivated...not a good idea.
Will all health care providers accept the amount designated by the government? (See Medicare/Medicaid)
Sounds perfectly logical and conservative to me. And it fits with this:

This is a serious topic ...I challenge you to provide evidence to back up your allegation that..”Canada has the worse systm out there’ put up or shut up....
I agree all who vote and have voted Dem in the last 8 years are to pay for everyone else from here on out.
there is no divine right to enslave doctors
Get a grip. The OP included a “barf alert”. He was not endorsing the SP system. It is a good idea to know how people advance arguments in favor of it.
Stop peaking through the cracks ...check it out ..lots of data out there..urgent cases get priority treatment ..it is the law...those with hangnails have to wait...
I’m for the same healthcare that the politicians have.Anything less is unacceptable.
And libs actually believe that they have a superior education and talent.
When health care is "free", there is a negative effect on quality and quantity of service, absolute total cost, aggregate demand for health care, supply of doctors. Taxes, creation of money out of thin air, gov. borrowing go up to pay for it.
Go find some truth and support it.
it works probably if the entire country were lets say Amish.
It starts falling apart the more third world “diversity” you import as the UK is finding out.
Patients of VA hospitals and clinics might disagree.Canadians that wait up to a year for a heart operation might also disagree.
this article proves that the Mississippi River is hopelessly polluted with chemicals that destroy human cognitive abilities.
Unless, of course, it is something in the air . . .
