You can post all the BS fairy tale propaganda you want but it won’t make any difference to people that actually know the truth. Tens of thousands of Canadians cross the border to get medical care in the US every year because they can’t get what they need in Canada. Canadians sometimes have to wait so long to see the specialist they need to see that the damage is irreversible or they die. Some treatments or drugs are simply not available. You have NO CHOICES under national health care systems, you are just a piece of meat and you do what you’re told. Some hospitals are awful but if they send you there you are stuck. You may wait for hours for an ambulance. There are thousands of horror stories about Canadian health care so stick your Socialist nonsense in your ear.

She was very lucky, as for women approaching 70, routine mammograms aren’t always given a major emphasis as far as medical care goes.

I like how he throws this in, almost as an unimportant detail, then goes on to rave about socialized medicine's preventive care. One asks what else isn't a "major emphasis", and for whom, and with what results.

I am not going to dispute the fact that Canadians are coming to the USA for their procedures because they don’t want to wait.

But where are you getting the “tens of thousands” figure from? I just want a reliable source for this.

I have family in British Columbia. They HATE IT. Going to the hospital and emergency ward is a gamble.

THEY WILL NOT SEE YOU UNLESS YOU HAVE A MEDICAL CARD. Now what if you don’t have a medical card? It’s screw you. At least here in America you can sue the hospital. over there because it s a socialist haven, you cant.

Just watched a vlog about a family in Nova Scotia. Their eighteen month old daughter fell and got a very bad gash in her forehead. They took her to the nearest hospital, and were told to go to Children’s Hospital a half hour away. There they waited five hours to see a doctor.

And the US acts as a release valve to the Canadian system. When they come here for help they cannot get in Canada, they are artificially propping up the system. If the US was not on the border, they would be forced to deal with those horrid situations.
