So what you are saying is when all is said and done, Canadians have an inferior health care system.

See this too. YOUR VIEW: How has Canada’s doctor shortage affected your life?

4.1 million Canadians without a doctor
New immigrants, poor more likely to not have physician, survey shows

One in 5 Canadians can’t find a doctor: survey

By the way, save the personal attacks.

The reason we have too few doctors is because our doctors are poached by the US, and we haven’t caught up through our own poaching of other countries. The number of doctors always lags behind the increase in population, whether it is a social program or free-market program, demand almost always precedes supply.

There are also quite a few clinics where immigrants and the poor can go to get health care. While it is nice to have your own doctor to visit, it isn’t necessary for health.
