I can only speculate why people are downvoting, but I suspect it's because sysbin's comment seems to suggest a particular state of mind: - Ignorance of the First Amendment - Extreme sense of entitlement and expectation that others should do as he/she expects regardless of how the other person feels about it Phrasing it as "I was surprised to find that doctors in the US can refuse treatment to transgenders based on their religious beliefs" would probably have led to far fewer downvotes.

Hypocrisy is what you're preaching right here. People downvoting me for expressing (what "they" consider a first amendment right) by voicing my opinion that Canada has it better for not restricting healthcare based on religious ideology. That's hypocrisy against my USA and Canadian right. People are scum when they use religion as an excuse to allow someone's health to be worse than if religion didn't exist to result in the maltreatment compared to a person with an illness they find tolerable by their beliefs for following treatment protocol accepted in the medical community. I can voice that opinion in Canada or in the USA. Canada has it better for trans people. I'm sure "scum" in USA will not care about that because they're a bunch of narcissists.
