"Ah, most of those links praise the Canadian system. Your life expectancy and infant mortality rates are in the header too. Which ones are smoke and mirrors"
-The waiting times are exaggerated.

"There's another question, though: How do you know your better numbers are a result of those outrageous taxes? Suppose you DIDN'T get robbed by your own gov't and had money to enjoy life? Is that worth nothing?"
-I don't understand the question?

-Most who need something medically done, want the procedure done immediately. So they usually go to the U.S. Some people just will not wait.

Great you have health coverage, how many Americans do not?

"One link says $2600 per capita. Call me skeptical."
- Do you mean per Family? If so ,it's much too high.

-Doctor shortage, nurse shortage, I do not see it. Probably a Union ploy in contract talks :))
