As far as health care in Canada that one comment from an Amercian politician about waiting 10 months for a bypass is bullshit. My mother-in-law lives in one of the poorest parts of the country and had a mild heart attack a month ago. She needed a bypass and the hospital in her area is a small one and can't do them so they took her by ambulance two hours away and did the bypass within a week. She's back in the local hospital now waiting until she's recovered enough to have some gallstones removed. She'll be out within a week and it won't cost her a dime. She will have to pay for any medication she needs, but will get most of the money back.
