Sure.<br/><br/>Just be sure you don't also adopt American-style bankruptcy protection, because you're going to need it, eh? American-style healthcare? Sure.

Additionally, once you hand over healthcare to the government, which is arguably one of the most important aspects of human life, the government will tirelessly fight to hang on to it. I feel sorry for you Canadian’s, because you have a tough and bloody battle ahead… “I don’t understand why there’s so much hate towards anyone who suggests letting this happen.”

I don't understand why there's so much hate towards anyone who suggests letting this happen.

The excuse usually is that the other party failed to implement the ideal and that the current group can do better. Socialism is a perfect example of this. A failed economic system the world over and yet we find the same system being implemented by yet another tin pot dictator that is on the "road to social justice" (in our backyard). The same will go for the single payer system. Any failure of the Canadian system will be blamed on the Canadians and not the underlying single payer system ideal. These things go in waves.

It is only a matter of time before it goes down in flames along with all its single payer cheerleaders. Looks like the single payer healthcare wall is on the verge of crumbling in Canada.
