Your overall point is that we have among the worst healthcare in the world and you're wrong period.

Last year Bloomberg ranked Canada as the #1 healthiest country out of 151 nations including all G-20 and P-20 nations.

Based on a basket of metrics ranging from government healthcare spending to rates of depression, alcohol use, smoking, happiness and exercise, the new index is the latest attempt by economists to evaluate the world beyond economic growth.

Davies’ dashboard ranks Canada highly due to its good scores for blood pressure, life expectancy and government healthcare spending.

Our healthcare system isn't perfect but I'm glad we have it, I would be interested on what you would do to make it so much better?
