I and every Canadian who pays a monthly premium does.
How it works is the Government negotiates payment schedules both with Doctors, Surgeons, and Health Boards (they are the ones in charge of the Hospitals) and they also get funding from private insurers like Blue Cross, Pacific Cross, Manulife, etc.
There isn't a shortage of funding or infrastructure, there is however a shortage of manpower, but that is happening worldwide.
