Maybe on a single plan, but on a group rate plan, they have to take everybody and every condition. If you're self-employed, it's easy to get in on a group rate plan through a chamber of commerce or other organization. Or through an employer, of course.

And Canada doesn't have "free" health care/insurance, it's paid for via taxes.
