You want a Canadian style of health care? What the heck, do you have a death wish?
"Father" of Canadian Health Care Admits its a Failure
"Just yesterday, I wrote about how unpopular the British healthcare system has become. Today comes news that the man largely responsible for Canada's conversion to a single-payer health care system has admitted the system's failure:"

Report Health care failing to meet needs of Canadians
Why would I want us to accept commie healthcare where everyone is treated equal? Everyone knows the best healthcare should only be made available to those who can afford it
We need to invade Canada and stop this commie incursion into North America
Yes everyone is treated so equally that they make you wait months for a cancer operation, that had it been timely would have resolved the situation, but because they make you wait, you get to see it metastasize, and then you get to die. A friend who works for the BC Dept. of Corrections, sold his home so he could get his wife into a US cancer treatment center. She is still alive. The ones forced to wait, are dead.
No thanks.
Sniff....sniff
I smell bullshit
Yes, every time you open your trap it smells foul. Here you go. People who are famous enough that they get news coverage.........

Canadian Premier to travel to U.S. for heart surgery - Toronto Headlines Examiner.com
OTTAWA–Belinda Stronach, the MP for Newmarket-Aurora and former cabinet minister, travelled outside Canada's health-care system to California for some of her breast cancer treatment earlier this year.
Stronach, diagnosed in the spring with a type of breast cancer that required a mastectomy and breast reconstruction, went to California in June at her Toronto doctor's suggestion, a spokesperson confirmed.

Canada, we are constantly being told by single-payer advocates, is a model social democracy with a medical delivery system that we should envy. Oddly, the people who make such claims never want to answer a question that Bill Steigerwald reiterates in a recent column
If Canada’s national health care system is so dang wonderful, why are so many Canadians coming to America to pay for their own medical care?
And it’s not only pregnant women, like the one who recently had to drive to Montana to have her baby, who cross into the U.S. on a daily basis seeking health care. Thus, Steigerwald inquires further:
Why is the hip replacement center of Canada in Ohio–at the Cleveland Clinic, where 10% of its international patients are Canadians … Why is Brain and Spine Center in Buffalo serving about 10 border-crossing Canadians a week?
By way of answering his own questions, Steigerwald provides the following datum:
Number of Canadians on waiting lists for referrals to specialists or for medical services–875,000.
It would appear that Canadians with sufficient financial means are seeking medical treatment in a country where such waiting lists exist only in the the fond dreams of single-payer advocates.
And what about the Canadians who don’t have the money to come here for care? I guess they just pray that their illnesses don’t kill them before the vaunted Canadian system can fit them in.

So...the filthy rich can go anywhere they choose
Still doesn't back your bullshit sob story about Canadians dying for lack of cancer treatment
Well, if it was good enough for Sarah Palin, it is good enough for me!
