Have you ever experienced SM? Thousand of Americans cross over into Canada each year to recieve medical attention they can't get here because they don't have ins. - I'm sure they can attest to how much better SM in Canada is to our health system!
Try to get elective surgery in Canada...doesn't happen.

No need...I was born good looking . It applies here as well..we just call it - "non-covered proceedure" ..you know, like when a 20 yr. old female develops breast cancer... Ins. company will deny the claim because 20 yr. old females don't get breast cancer!!! Anyway... I'm really not up for battling with you again in yet another thread destined to turn into a Obama v. McCain debate which will eventually be put on lockdown!
And it varies within each province. In my area, my GP sees me right away if I'm really sick. Otherwise waiting for an appointment is equal to my old doctor in NY. Its not worse. And we have walk in clinics, just like down there, where they will see you right away.

Down here I can see my dr. even if I just want to talk with him. No need to be very sick.
