“Free” healthcare? Now that is an interesting idea. Are you under the impression that doctors and surgeons, nurses and administrators all work free? Buildings for hospital, supplies and equipment, also drugs are all supplied by someone “free”? The helicopter, pilot and medivac support all work free? Or that the Canadian tax payers are so very wealthy that they can afford to pay huge amounts of taxes towards healthcare that the American taxpayers can’t come close to affording?
My experience in my European native country - at the time under Communism - is that when you don’t pay doctors; they don’t work. I had to bribe my guy with a carton of US cigarettes to get a shot. He was about to use a rusted, huge (I called it horse) syringe and I gave him another carton of cigarettes to give me the documentation I got the shot, but not to actually touch me with that syringe.
