Think about it - Fris is paying $10,000 a year in Canada. I'm paying
$3,000 a year in the US. How exactly is he getting "a much better deal"?
He's not, he's just wasting $7,000 on government inefficiency and waste.
I think you are a bit confused regarding this.

Try getting health care for $3k a year when you are 55, or 65, or 75, or 85.

You may be paying $3k per year right now -- but as you get older they will be charging you more, as it will become increasingly likely that you will become sick and need medical care.
