You're forgetting our sales tax is much higher, so although the console may appear cheaper when you convert the prices of games sold in Canada to US dollars, we pay more or around the same as them in the end (for everything). Almost everything is cheaper in the US. 

Yeah...that big one of health care is a real pain though.  Be happy to pay a bit more on games and all as opposed to having to spend $160 a month for basic insurance that covers next nothing so a single hospital visit could easily be in thousands.  There are trade offs in any society.

That's true. Free healthcare is a great benefit (even if the quality isn't that great!) but again, our income tax is slightly higher. So overall, with taxes, our disposable income is lower.
