For life threatening situations, Canadian healthcare seems to work
well for most people - though I doubt you'd find a state in the US
with a backlog of 400 bypasses. OTOH, ask someone with kidney
stones or gall stones how they feel about their "care" in Canada.

I can't argue with you there. If I was in that kind of pain, I'd search
frantically for medical care to relieve that pain.
