What is false about it? I mean, other than you slapping an image via photoshop on top if it.

Well, this is disappointing for the many Canadians hoping to get a report from Trudeau in regard to how he enjoyed his stay at the Quarantine Hotel as required for all Canadians traveling abroad. You know, the hotels where you don't have to worry about losing your key, because there is no lock on the door and you and your family wake up with a red arsehole and a quarter in your hand and a bad case of covid.
However, it turns out that Trudeau is *SPECIAL.* As if we did not know.

This is Ottawa’s public health mocking the rival Toronto team for losing.
No one in Canada should be joking, least of all the public health people. healthcare is a joke in Canada. But hey, free shitty healthcare is better than no healthcare at all, eh?
Global Public Healthcare System Rankings (Top 10) as of April 2021
1. Sweden: Quality of life rank (3) and best country overall rank (9)
2. Germany: Quality of life rank (9) and best country overall rank (3)
3. Denmark: Quality of life rank (2) and best country overall rank (12)
4. Canada: Quality of life rank (1) and best country overall rank (1)
5. Switzerland: Quality of life rank (5) and best country overall rank (4)
6. Netherlands: Quality of life rank (7) and best country overall rank (10)
7. Norway: Quality of life rank (4) and best country overall rank (13)
8. United Kingdom: Quality of life rank (14) and best country overall rank (8)
9. Finland: Quality of life rank (8) and best country overall rank (18)
10. Japan: Quality of life rank (13) and best country overall rank (2)
Having a well-developed public health system is one of nine attributes used to develop the Quality of Life sub-ranking in the 2021 Best Countries report. The survey is based on a study that surveyed more than 17,000 global citizens from four regions to assess perceptions of 78 countries on 76 different metrics.
Here are the 10 countries viewed to have the most well-developed public health care systems. The United States ranks No. 22, falling seven spots on the list compared to 2020.
Compared to the United States healthcare system, the Canadian healthcare system has lower costs, more services, universal access to health care without financial barriers, and superior health status. Canadians and Germans have longer life expectancy and lower infant mortality rates than do United States residents.

The above similar like information already posted before the start of this thread which is what I think prompt the creation of this thread...immaturity and punk like behavior.
Personally, I've experienced both the public and private healthcare system in United States and Canada. I don't remember much about one critical experience in my life but I was hospitalized in France (in a coma / life & death critical illness)...
I was medivac back to Canada (not to my other home in the United States) for treatment and recovery via decisions by my family members that consist of nurses / doctors / medical personnel...all of whom are employed in the United States.
I was only informed about the decision making process and what had happened after I came out of the coma...in Canada...surrounded by family members from the United States.

As with vaccines, many Canadians continue to look to the US for ways to improve their health care system.
SHAMEFUL. JUST SHAMEFUL.
Derek H. Burney: Canada's pandemic failures expose need for private health-care tier
The smug notion that our system is better than the one in the U.S. rings hollow in the face of the much more effective American response.
In Canadian politics, health care is beyond reproach. It is considered to be free and universal when it is actually neither. Attempts at structural reform to improve the scope and the quality of care are consistently thwarted by those who maintain that what we have is sacrosanct and that the only answer is more government — i.e., more taxpayer money. Long before COVID, the system was overwhelmed. Demand vastly exceeding supply. Wait times were getting longer and the quality of care, except in emergencies, was increasingly becoming mediocre. There is an acute shortage of ICU facilities and more than 14 per cent of adult Canadians have no family doctor.
On the pandemic, Canada is consistently performing below par on the global scale. Fewer than five per cent of Canadians have received two vaccines, whereas almost 50 per cent of Americans have been doubly vaccinated. Praising recent increases in the dispensing of single doses is disingenuous. The haphazard mismanagement of the pandemic at all levels of government should be a call to arms for a full-scale review of Canada’s health-care deficiencies.

TreeFrogTrader seems to be getting increasingly desperate and emotional as he runs out of things to complain about on Canada's Covid response. Americans must be so proud to know this dumb online twit came out of their education system.
This core fact is something many Americans on here refuse to acknowledge because it pains them to think they are severely overpaying for a mediocre health care system. It's not unlike the Covid situation where in fact the death rate in the US is triple that of Canada yet they are still posting outright lies that Canada had a poor Covid response.
The whole "US rolled out vaccines faster then Canada" theme seems like a desperate attempt to save face now. So what if we didn't keep up with a few countries on the roll out. We fixed the problem. Vaccines are rolling out rapidly now ( second doses ). The dead can't be brought back to life. There are roughly 400,000 extra Americans dead from Covid due to the American's poor understanding and response to the outbreak.
I forgot some statistical information with graphs about the average cost per Covid patient that's hospitalized in Canada and the United States:
For an insured person in United States...its about 45k and uninsured is about 71k.
In contrast, in Canada...its about 23k but the government pays the full bill. A good friend of mine that was hospitalized / ICU with Covid for 3 months here in Canada...it did not cost her a penny.
- It's a growing crisis in the United States...the financial burden on top of having a health crisis has financially ruin many. Yet, such was occurring long before Covid.
In fact, I know people that migrated to Canada solely because of financial health reason while others (those that live on the border) come to Canada for medical visits to get treatment. In addition, there's a not discussed reason why Canadian politicians that are married to U.S. citizens choose continue working in Canada...they also primarily live in Canada and not the United States.
Just as important, they mainly get their medical healthcare in Canada...not United States.
Many examples of these Canadian politicians but I'll just mention one considering her name has been mention many times in this thread by TreeFrog...
- Honorable Michelle Rempel- Conservative Member of Parliament
The point will be further made if Michelle's husband Jeffrey ever gets severely ill in the United States...lets see if he stays in the United States for treatment or if Michelle brings her husband north of the border for treatment.
Last of all, lets briefly talked about Canada's Snowbirds that have 2nd homes in United States. Of those that were infected with Covid while in the United States...almost all of them came back for treatment in Canada.
- Here's just one example @ https://www.saltwire.com/halifax/ne...after-contracting-covid-19-in-florida-545262/
Mailman said she was hospitalized for eight days and on oxygen, but her husband's condition was worse. He was on a ventilator for a time, and remained in hospital until he was airlifted back to Nova Scotia last week. He remains in a 14-day quarantine at Valley Regional Hospital, where he is on oxygen and still unable to walk.
Mailman, though, is still in Florida.
“They wouldn't let me on the ambulance with him, because I hadn't had a recent negative COVID test,” she said. “I've been going everywhere to try to get one.”
