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"
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2330341 Doc, it happens that I have a doctor in my family and I understand what you are saying but you are "over the top". Some precautions have to be done because Canadian Health System is abused by many people and also by some doctors who are overcharging and billing twice OHIP's accounts or even charges unexisting patients on someone else cards. You know exactly what I am talking about. Majority of doctors who run from Canada to USA are those who lost their licences in here for medical missconduct or who want to get rich fast. Only few moved to America because they got married to US citizen. So, the next time an American is treated by Canadian doctor in USA, he/she should ask themselves a question: “Why this doctor is here?”. Thank you Canada for giving me this opportunity to become Canadian, a proud one!
