My latest hospital experience.

The dirty little secret most Canadians don’t want to face?

Our socialist health care system sucks.

My wife had to wait 11 months for routine surgery not too long ago. Waiting that long for surgery in the western world is a disgrace that should never happen.

These problems will never get better unless we change the system, but I can’t see that happening. Canadians have the blinders on. Most Canadians look at the US health care system, get scared, and say, we don’t want that. Until that changes, nothing will ever get better.

EXACTLY. Today I hurt bad, much worse than yesterday... but I am afraid that if I go back in, they won't listen. So eff it, i'll be silent. People don't realize how lousy our medical system is.

Canadians just look at the fact that they don’t have to pay up front, so our system must be better than America’s. It’s idiotic.
