That's great, I'm glad the system worked for you. I too am grateful that our country doesn't operate on an overinflated government run bureaucracy. I'm also grateful that I can choose the level of health care I need without the government choosing for me and then taxing the hell out of me every year.  |
the canadian sytem has been in place now for a generation or two...subsequent left wing, right wing, centralist and coalition governments havent changed it very much...because a large majority of canadians dont want it changed... and yes there are strains on the system and yes, we pay more for cigs and booze and gas... thats not much of a sacrifice for a national health care system...generally though, canadians look at society as a whole, while americans look at it as individuals and that is the major difference between our countries.
