A new report released Thursday says that privatization of health care in Ontario won’t reduce wait times but may actually increase them.

    Plus private only offers better until public goes to shit, then private does whatever the fuck they want, which is prioritize the wealthy who will pay the most. Profits!

      See : USA

      The only people who think that private health care in the USA is better than public in Canada are people who have never had to deal with private insurance. It is expensive, wait times are still long, you get nickled and dimed for every little thing to inflate the bill, CoPays, Out-of-Network, your primary care physician/hospital/ambulance/anesthesiologist might not take your insurance.

      It is an unlit maze of bullshit and the insurance company does not care if you get lost forever.
