@asmallteapot yeah been hearing horror stories about emergency care in Ontario as well 😞 In that case it feels there’s a certain willfulness by the conservative government to create a failure of the public system. Not sure what the dynamic is like in BC
@asmallteapot Wikipedia suggests US DOD healthcare costs about $5400 per person covered (didn’t find numbers for just tricare’s part of that total). Adding in their portion of Medicare spending brings that to about USD $8300, if I did the math right. That’s more than the CAD $8500 per capita that Canadians spend. Is the idea Canadians are underfunding their healthcare system? It wasn’t obvious to me what you were suggesting by the comparison
