My experience with the Canadian health care system is limited to the births and care of my two sons -- and I really cannot commend the system enough.
When our sons' were born, we had a private birthing room, 1-on-1 nursing, and the very highest level of obstetrician care (three doctors for my first -- including the head of obstetrics at the hospital, and two for the second). My first was born during the world cup, and they even had a dad's room set up with live coverage of the games
When I have had to take my eldest son to the hospital for stomach upsets, etc. they have taken care of him quickly and with the utmost care and attention.
I really have no complaints.
