The problems with the Canadian system have been getting progressively
worse over the years. We used to have one of the greatest medical
systems in the world about thirty or forty years ago.....not any
more.

It's not a disaster yet..... it's still fairly good... as long as
your not one of the familes that have lost kin due to the failures of
the Canadian health system.


Now we have U.S. medical clinics buying advertising in Canada to
get Canadians to go to their facilities over the border. They offer
quick service, (versus waiting times in Canada), and easy
payment plans and accept some payment from Canadian health insurers.


Canadians that are well off and can afford it.. if they don't want
to wait for scans, and treatment in Canada, then they get it in the
U.S. There
have been cases where waiting in Canada... has resulted in
death...that's just the way it happens to be. They ware working on
trying to
get the waiting times shortened, and some provinces have shorter
times
than others, but until then, Canadians have the option of treatment in
the U.S.
And the U.S. clinics and hospitals must be getting the patients, or
they wouldn't
be spending big advertising dollars attracting Canadians to go to the
U.S.

An unapologetic Danny Williams says he was aware his trip to the
Just to clarify, Williams isn't the Prime Minister of Canada.
He is the Premier of the Province of Newfoundland/Labrador.
Although, based on his reported remarks that may not be for
much longer.

What makes you think that?
And what about the 20,000 American patients a year who seek medical
treatment outside the USA in Canada, India and Europe?
To obtain meds that haven't been approved by the FDA. ie. experimental.
Then there are
well over 100,000 Americans who purchase medications in Canada due to
the poor supply and high prices in the USA.
Nothing to do with supply, just prices.
Do they represent as much of a condemnation of the quality of USA
health care as one Premier seeking it in Miami on the advice of his
doctor does to the Canadian system?
I guess he's special! He doesn't have to do what the "commoner" has to do.
If Americans like Clyde the idiot keep deluding themselves into
believing there is nothing wrong with the US system (and how for some
reason Obama wants the Canadian system, which he doesn't) you idiots
will only fall further and further in the international rankings when
it comes to overall quality of care .
O.K. Kook alert! The U.S. has the best Medical system in the world. If it's not,
Williams should have gone to Cuba!
Right wing ignorance is not the answer. At least the problems with
the Canadian system are manageable, while the ones in the US system
are endemic and require a fundamental overhaul of the system to
improve things.
Real kook alert! You obviously haven't been in a doctors office or hospital in the states.
Most of you right wing turds get what you know from right wing
propaganda and have no facts to make up your tiny limited minds.
Using anecdotes like Danny Williams only proves that you are a bunch
of myopic morons who can't see the big picture.
O.K. You went from kook to kool-aid drinker! Try using original thought sometime rather
than the pre-gurgitated crap from CNN or MSNBC ( If you are a real Canadian, you get these
channels from stealing US satellite signals!).
