What is right about the Canadian health care system?

Canadians tend to dwell on problems in their health care system, looking to the United States for magical fixes. Evidence on comparative system performance, which rarely surfaces in public debate, indicates that Canadians are healthier, not only because the social environment is more benign, but also because health care is allocated by need rather than ability to pay. Expenditures art: much lower, bur Canadians receive equivalent care because their system is more efficient. Although Canadian "waiting lists" are highly publicized, the United States avoids the issue by excluding those who cannot pay. Why, then, do American notions keep pushing north! All expenditures are someone's income. There is a great deal of money to be made by wrecking Canadian Medicare.
