The American *hatred* in the replies to Gil McGowan's post about his son's brain surgery is simply stunningly ignorant.
Do Canadians complain about healthcare? Yes.
Do Canadians want improvements? Yes.
Do Canadians want American HC? lol fuck that shit.

A Canadian is willing to admit something we do, may not be the best in the world but we will work on it.
A US(er/ain) only answer is we are the best in the world. Often followed by a chant of "U-S-A"
50k is NOTHING.
And of course they were Google AI quoting Quebec's tax rate for over $250,000 lol
Our healthcare issues can be fixed with funding.
Instead, provinces starve the public system of funds, then say the only solution to the outcome they created is privatization.
But us saying "this has issues" and "this needs funding" and "this needs fixing" is not us saying "let's get rid of it! yay for profit!!!!!!"
if anything, it's us wanting it LESS so lol
But also in 2022. When I was sick? When I had to be at the hospital every 2 weeks for ELEVEN iron infusions waiting for surgery? Me and @magpie.tips were bitching that I had to pay for parking.
@mostlybree.kitrocha.com sat me down & said "Krista, we are all traumatized. When someone is sick, we automatically start the fundraising. We don't understand "I don't need help."
