Using data from Statistics Canada and the Canadian Institute for Health Information, the Fraser Institute study estimated the amount of taxes Canadian families will pay for public health insurance this year. The study also looked at how much the cost of public health insurance has increased over the last decade.

According to the study, Canadian families will pay on average between $3,592 to $11,786 for public health insurance in 2014, depending on the size of their family. For the purposes of their research, the study authors looked at six different family types.

The study found that over the last 10 years, the cost of public health care insurance for the average Canadian family has increased:

• 1.5 times faster than average income
• 1.3 times as fast as the cost of housing
• 1.6 times as fast as clothing costs
• More than three times as fast as the cost of food

[LMAO]

And Canada had to admit around 2010 that their system was unsustainable.

That’s the same system Trump tells us is working well...lol

The figures in the article do not include the amount paid by Canadians crossing the border and paying directly for more sophisticated and more expensive health care treatments.

$11K would be a reduction from the cost of my unsubsidized Obamacare bronze plan. Insurance premiums plus deductibles and out of pocket expenses currently running $20K for husband and wife.
