My 85 year old German mother-in-law (born in 1939 and moved to Canada around 1960), suggested the same thing.

(PS I'm an American living in Canada)

During his first term at the gym this little old lady was working out on the treadmill next to me and when Kelly Ann Conway came on the tv, she leans over and goes, oh that lady shouldn't be alive. (paraphrasing to not get banned)

are you enjoying your healthcare?

Canadian here, the health care is useable. It keeps being underfunded atleast here in Ontario but you can get it with no cost... just be prepared to wait in ER.

I already wait in the ER for hours, then have the privilege of paying out the ass for it.

If you can wait in an ER there are people that have it worse.. proper distributed healthcare outside hospitals would dramatically reduce this issue, GPs handle so much that the US handles through emergency rooms.
