Healthcare. USA vs Canada

[DennisAJC]

Just watched Micheal Moore's "Sicko" and I must admit you folks have it bad.

Over here in Canada it doesn't matter who you are, rich or poor, what your condition is, whether your proceedure is $100 or $100,000.00, the medicine costs 30cents or $100/pill, it doesn't cost Canadians a penny.

And if the medical procedure or expertise does not exist in Canada, they'll pay to fly them to another country for the treatment no charge. My son Tyler has first hand experience when he had to stay at Children's in Dallas for a few days to see a specialist. An $82,000.00US bill we never saw. No letters of refusals, freedom to choose any hospital.

When you are sick, it is illegal to refuse treatment and you may leave in a day or a month when you feel 100%.

Not trying to start trouble. I just think it's criminal how my friends across the border have to be put under that kind of stress. Especially those with children.

You have to watch this documentary. It'll boil your blood.
