Canada proves it works

 

There is a massive trade off represented by the Canadian healthcare system ...

While more people are covered in the Canadian system a lot of people have no ability to get a GP; there are long waiting lists for Specialists, diagnostic tests, surgeries, and emergency care; and costs are still escalating at an unsustainable pace, and at the current rate it is unlikely that we will be able to afford healthcare within 10 (or so) years.

Many parts of the excalating cost and bleak outlook are all a result of the US and the effect they have on Canada's available doctors and nurses.
