THe Canadian Health System is a disaster.

You can wait up to 22 hrs in emergency or longer to see a physician

You can wait years to fix non-life threatening conditions like angina and crippling hip arthritis

Currently most wealthy canadians come to the US to get top-notch and rapid care.

When the government takes over as single payer the following happens

1. Rationing of services
2. removal of competition
3. Unionization of the allied health personnel
4. Loss of innovation
5. Politicization of system
6. Increased costs and loss of services
7 loss of choice
8. intimidation of physicians and whistle blowers who stand up for patients


I know this, I am (was) a Canadian Physician and I am very happy to be practising in the USA. The physicians here have a voice and can bring the services their patient need without having to beg and plead with retarded socialist government health "managers"

LOL you don't know shit, Doctor Shill

"22 hrs in emergency"
Why didn't you put your golf clubs down and go help?

OP Canadians don't worry about health care, it's costs and availability. How many Canadians have you heard of the lost everything because they were driven into bankruptcy because of medical bills?

Exactly, good post! This doctor may not be about the Hippocratic Oath but about hypocrisy. LOL

I am originally from Europe. Had two choices, either USA or Canada. Choose the second one and I am very happy and proud to be Canadian. Learned the language, got my second education, work and pay taxes here. And I thank God for our free medical care system.

Just few months ago I posted on yahoo asking those who were living in both countries America and Canada, which country they would choose (thumbs up and down) if they have a choice? There was many replays and besides just one all of them voted for Canada. And the one who didn;t wrote that he is moving to Florida because of lower taxes.

When it comes to American "free" Obama health care it won't be free at all because Americans will have to pay for it and that means higher taxes. The only Americans who will actually benefit from it are those ones who are on food stamps.
