- my brother has paid for cancer screening tests in another Province. Plus you can pay for private rooms and stuff like that -- nm - Beaker Jan 25, 07:36

  - What percentage of facilities would you estimate are private care? -- nm - David Jan 25, 07:58 1
    - Varies by province. Some, such as Quebec and BC, have higher percentages of private clinics. Others, like MB, with an.... - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:03
  - Is private health insurance available for that? -- nm - pmb Jan 25, 07:54 26
    - sort of? To answer you and David at the same time - Reagen Jan 25, 08:07 25

      - Yeah, there are a few that do surgery, things like joint replacements that typically have longer waiting times and aren't life-saving. - mafic Jan 25, 08:25 1
        
        That's actually where the MB NDP were able to grind many private clinics out. Forced WCB to reduce their business at those clinics here. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:29
      - Aren't you happy that your taxes helped pay for my wife's ultrasound here via transfer payments? - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:10 20
        
        Well, as long as the state got to take it if it was some sort of mutant, sure. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 25, 08:28 1

        Well, aren't you Captain Do-Gooder? - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:14 2
        
        I look at it in the other direction. It's Ralph Klein's fault that we don't pay for that here. - Reagen Jan 25, 08:16 1
        
        Still doesn't change the fact that Ants in Alberta are being forced to pay for Grasshopper lifestyles elsewhere. - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:18

        This is a complete misconception of how our system works though. People view it as "helping get everybody to a certain standard", but it doesn't.... - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:17 8
        
        I not only consider it right and fair but a moral imperative. - David Jan 25, 08:22 7
        
        Exactly. Why bother having a society at all, if your ultimate goal is to abandon every individual and make them fend for themselves? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 25, 08:28 3
        
        That's not what I'm saying. And that's certainly not how it works. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:30 2
        
        It's the inevitable forecast of conservatism. Gloomy. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 25, 08:31 1
        
        Because let's not actually address the inequalities in the system if we believe in our hearts that it is working fine as is. - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:34
        
        Fair enough, but you should know that the lifestyle differences between different provinces are not as great as in the States. - Name Withheld By Request Jan 25, 08:27 2
        
        Without noble intentions, there is no point in attempting good governance. -- nm - David Jan 25, 08:29 1
