Is it? BTW, provision of healthcare in Canada is a provincial matter, so there are 13 separate healthcare systems in Canada. Which one is in collapse? Or are all the provinces facing severe budgetary constraints imposed by the previous Conservative, let's not tax the rich, government. There are some very powerful, vested interests, namely the insurance and drug companies, that do not want public healthcare. I am completely suspicious of private, for profit healthcare. Are you seriously telling me that private healthcare is better? (Okay, private healthcare is better for the maybe the top 1% who can pay for their healthcare out of pocket, but if that is not you, the public system is better.) If I change employer, and therefore insurance policy and/or provider, I will never have to think about previous conditions that may not be covered with my new employer, for instance.
