Bullshit. People in Canada who have an emergency, like a heart attack, do not "sit and wait 12 to 14 hours". I doubt you have ever even seen, let alone been in, a Canadian hospital. Your lunatic fringe right wing bias is obvious. The rest of your show is probably equally as questionable.

I am Canadian and have to deal with the Canadian health care system on a regular basis. But nice try buddy.
I nearly died last year after being given more than 5 different WRONG anti-biotics and steroids for my lung ailment over 4 months.
I had tension headaches as well where I was passing out and unable to walk. Going to the hospital slurring my words and unable to walk they told me I had to wait 9 months for a CT scan.
Have you ever been in a Canadian hospital? lol
Being against pharmaceutical monopolization via taxation and regulation is not "right wing bias" as I'm not "right wing". It's called understanding the most basic forms of economic and market principles.
So the better alternative is to have no health care. I doubt your story as I have many relatives in Canada and they are not only satisfied with their system but laugh at the "dumb Americans" who can't afford health coverage and who constantly try to "crawl across the border" into Canada thinking they can get it free there.
Go ahead and doubt my story then. Or perhaps try living in this system. The main architect of Canadian healthcare Jack Layton went to Europe for treatment when he had cancer. Try to comprehend the economics of this issue and you'd realize that it's not about "free", it's about monopolization and price inflation benefiting massive pharmaceutical companies with no incentive for innovation and competition leading to better treatment, greater medications and low prices.
It's not rocket science.
