I always find it interesting when Canadians complain about the 10 key items being repealed. We do not have coverage for a good chunk of those items.

Oral Care for kids
Mental health and substance use disorder services, including counseling and psychotherapy
Prescription drugs -- Birth Control especially makes health care for women in Canada more expensive than for men.
Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices, which help people with injuries and disabilities to recover -- This is somewhat covered but not fully

Granted we have better coverage overall but that list of 10 items is something that should be debated to what is included and to what scope it should be included when trying to control costs of a health care system.
