Gloryseeker...

Our family goes to Canada on vacation every year because the family has a cottage up in Ontario off Charleston Lake. We have family and good friends in Canada and have grown to know it well. We even have Canadian Apostolics on this forum. In fact, if you'd like to discuss universal health care we have a thread for that in the Canadian section.

I'm curious, have you ever been to Canada. It's beautiful.

Yes, I have - three times in fact. However, if your post is in regards to universal health care it is a known fact that the Canadian system doesn't work. MANY Canadians come to the USA for medical.

This has turned out to be a hotbutton issue. Not many threads get this much activity.

And my wife has treated several Canadians who needed major organ transplants, as well as from England, because their own "system" didn't approve of it. These are people who paid many tens of thousands of their own money when they should have gotten it for free but didn't because of A) their age, or B) the ever present waiting list.

Nearly 50 million Americans are uninsured. Every year roughly 18,000 Americans die because they didn't have coverage or were denied coverage for treatment that may have saved their lives.

Somehow I doubt we see these kinds of numbers in Canada or even coming from Canada for health care.

I admit, the Canadian system isn't perfect. There are many models for universal health care, some are better than others. The United States is in the unique position of choosing what elements of what systems will benefit us most. I believe that if we ever launch a universal health insurance system in the US it will not be long until it is the best in the entire world.

If you'd like to discuss universal health care with some Canadians we can go to the following thread. Maybe you can...help them see the light and support a system like ours. LOL
