I heard this from a guy in Toronto who's dad was waiting for some cancer treatment. Americans drive there because it's cheaper, and they get prioritized because they pay into the system.
I can't really find anything on google, but most searches are just turning up the "Canadians going to America" stuff because google isn't great at context.
I will say this though: Canada is pretty much the worst example of a socialized healthcare system, and it's still a little better than hours. They may have to worry about wait times, but they get treatment without going bankrupt. In America, you can be rich, you can go bankrupt (even if you have insurance) or you can die.
Yay.
ah..you 'heard from a guy' who heard it from another guy, who heard it from his sister, who heard it from her boy friend...
gotcha.
Oh good, you've gotten to the point of not reading what I post. And you wonder why I called you a troll.
If you're not going to read, fuck off.
Like literally, the next four words in that sentence were "in Toronto whose dad." You couldn't read four more words, let alone the rest of the post? Fuck off.
