Letter: Quit dumping on Canadian health care

…another letter from a fed-up Canadian tired of the lies put forth about Canadian healthcare.

Detroit Free Press, Sept 28th

This Canadian is tired of US media (ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX) transmitting health care falsehoods to the public. I would expect this type of malarkey from the representative of a US for-profit health care insurance company.

Furthermore the media has been no mention of the numerous Americans who are presently living abroad in countries with a private health care system in medical exile.

This Canadian would rather pay a little extra tax than the exorbitant premiums to a for-profit health insurance company. As Americans you have every freedom to fill the coffers of those aforementioned companies.

Now you all can say you know a Canadian, who along with well over 80% of the population is proud of our state of the art health care system. However I respectfully request that the media quit brow beating the remaining first world nations who all offer a single payer health care system.
