Just as one 65-year-old, average-health Canadian I would like to wish all of you in the United States the best in choosing a health-care system that works for you and is the finest for you and that reflects your concerns as individuals and as a nation. I do wish you the best, I'm sure we all do. But please, many of us wish you wouldn't build your hopes and desires for a fine health-care system for your country largely by denigrating what we have in other countries. We, it might surprise you, are largely happy with our health care system. I know I am. Could it be better? Yep! Might you find complaints with it? Yep! But I and many I know personally have lived with it since its inception and are very, very happy with it.. The hardware? Maybe it could be better, I don't know. Same with some of the political policies. But folks I'll tell you one thing, I am very, very proud of every person I've met who has been connected with our health care system, as a patient and as a taxpayer. If you have good people (and you do), then you will have a good system. But please, let us enjoy the one we have and have had for many decades.
