and not only that but the only reason that Canadians ever leave the country for healthcare reasons is because they want lower wait times. That's it. It has nothing to do with quality of care, it has nothing to do with not being able to get treatment. It's literally just upper-class people who are too impatient to wait for their kid to get a cast while the doctors and nurses make sure people don't die from serious illnesses. Which mind you isn't bad at all but the point is they can still get the care for free, they're choosing not to.

loving duh

that's what you get with socialized healthcare

You can le meme all you like but socialized healthcare in australia is fantastic and I'm glad we've got that over the 'hunger games' system you guys have going on in the US

I'm guessing you've never actually used our healthcare system in an emergency. You can visibly be having a stroke and the doctors will forget around and do nothing until you are braindead. Nurses are incompetent as well. Multiple Canadians have told me that they get far better service in the Dominican Republic of all places than here. All in all our healthcare is abhorrent.

Multiple Canadians have told me

Sounds like a respectable sample. You should publish a report or something!

I mean we can go back to that huffingtonpost article that Kearn posted if you need a source that badly

multiple canadians have actually told me that's not the case so...

I did some back-of-the-envelope math by taking the number of people that die from strokes in Canada/US divided by the number of people in each country, respectively. The number is almost exactly the same, so it sounds like the biggest difference here is that you get to go brain-dead and broke in the US.

healthcare here is just as bad then, me and a lot of people i know have lots of stories about awful nurses and doctors. someone i know who has a history of very serious seizures had an episode, they brought her to the hospital where the doctors refused to do anything for them because they said she just had ‘low blood sugar’. didn’t do anything until she started seizing again. this was at a branch of one of the top hospitals in the nation.

lots of stories out there like this, there’s bad doctors and staff everywhere

[Nonnel]

Throw on having to pay $10,000

[Red Spy]

ive been to three separate Canadian hospitals for asthma attacks and all three times the wait was like 30 minutes and the doctors were like 40x nicer than they are in the United States. They also give me more medication
