Addendum: I should ask if you have considered just letting the Canadian system crumble. Not bothering to save it. Because it's clearly not working as it should, not that this should come to the surprise of anyone familiar with the inefficiencies inherent in government run infrastructure.

And if you need to see a doctor, do it on the sly and remunerate him directly. Preferably in a form that doesn't result in money changing hands (so, bartering) and cut the government bullshittery out of the equation entirely.

Government never excels in efficiency. They excel in spending money and fucking things up.

Letting it crumble?? It's well on it's way there now.

Some provinces are spending nearly half of their budgets on crappy health care. It's not sustainable and it will come crashing to the ground within 20 years unless the Canada Health Act is reformed.

It is even worse in Canada. Canadian provinces have health boards, that are made up of appointed leftist political hacks. They decide how the block grants are spent. And it is always what the union bosses want, not what the public needs.
