I had a knee replacement last November after waiting for a year and a half. A friend’s sister went to see her doctor and found out she needed a knee replacement and he asked her how soon she would like to be booked in. Oh, I should mention that this lady is a judge here in Ontario.

So, socialized medicine is great is you are one of the elites.

Bingo!

So the average Canadian pays $22,000 per year for bad quality healthcare.

“Has anything changed in Canada (for better or worse ) since?”


No,it was just an FYI post because when I started reading it I knew I had read it before.

There is no hyper violent minority population shooting each other in Canada

Well, there are the Jamaicans in Toronto, and the Chinese and Indians (dot, not feather) in Vancouver getting a bit frisky lately.

It was the Premier of Newfoundland, and he was on vacation in Florida, when he had the procedure (developed in Canada, btw) performed.

The only folks who made a big deal about it were the same ones who scream about gun control down there. And of course the occasional Canada-basher.

The things always missing from these arguments is the non quantifiable issues like “quality of care”.

And availability - many up in Canada wait many months for a procedure we can get next week.

They forgot to average that into the figures.
