    Some of us in Canada, anyway.  The rest of us are just hoping that your healthcare improves a bit. Our system isn't perfect--we differ in our ideas about what to do about that--but we don't have waiting for urgent surgeries, and we have world-class chemotherapy and immuno-therapy for cancer that's not rationed.  My mother-in-law got paramedics called to her rest home and zipped to the E.R. every time her lips turned blue right up until days before she died from Alzheimer's. She had her carotid artery replaced in 1970, and many, many, procedures since. If you think that we ration care, or that we stop treating patients when they become too expensive, you are believing horror stories from advertising paid for by the health care industry.  Drugs, professionals, machines, and workers take money.  But why do you pay so much to get so little?
