I don't know how many of you have required life-threatening medical tests or had to deal with a lot of specialists, but the experiences in that article are much more like what us and our family have been through than the bright wonderful vision of free health care for all. Health care doesn't mean squat if you can't even see the doctor for an initial consultation, let alone waiting a year or MORE for a diagnosis so you can START treatments..
Try living in a small town where the only family doctor is the ER because there's waiting lists for YEARS to get a family physician. The system is under immense pressure and it will crack... I'm looking forward to the ability to have private health care facilities available. :P
