Or, you could talk to a former coworker of mine, who lived across the river in Windsor. He wouldn't go near the US system either. He told me one day, how he has to keep his mouth shut at work. His podmate was fully indoctrinated about how the US system was wonderful and socialized medicine was terrible. He couldn't believe the lies she spouted about the Canadian system, but knew it was useless to try to inform her of the facts.
For me, one of the most powerful “eye witness accounts” came with a discussion I had with a third year family medicine resident who trained in the University of Michigan Health Care System. She couldn’t wait to finish her residency and return to Canada.
Better for her. Better for patients, and the whole “wait time” argument was basically bogus.
“I like treating patients more than I like the endless hours of dealing with paperwork and insurance claims.”
