What's more depressing than American healthcare?

Canadian conservatives replacing theirs with the American system without a fight.

When I last visited Canada a group of old men were talking at the Canadian Tire about how long it takes to see a doctor. Were saying they need to start making people pay like they do in the States.

Don't fall for that propaganda. We have both long waits and pay a ton of money. It can be both. I've had bills up to $118,000 and it can take me a year to see a specialist. I can't find a primary care doctor and it takes several months to get in with a temporary nurse practitioner instead.

It's pathetic. We are willing choosing to let it go, despite being such a huge advantage of being Canadian

I hear this a lot but where is it happening? Definitely not in the discussion in NS.

Dont get me wrong, fuck the PCs but I havent seen any real evidence of replacing our public medical system.

It's not "our" it's per province. Alberta in my case.
