It's warmer and better for millionaires, but otherwise we have 'em beat in pretty much every category that matters to your average working man.

A lot better if you have a heap of money or a truly unique skill. A lot worse for everyone else.

>>58040228
Well i'd have to say it's better for jealous people that want to also be surrounded by poor people. Oh and if you like lead in your water and jewish nepotism then perhaps it might lead in a few categories.

I'd agree except that Canada's unemployment is slightly higher and waittimes for surgery are atrocious.
>>
>>58040904
if you are middle class or above it's definitely better than the UK...
>>
>>58040228
Yes, that's why I moved here from Canada
>>
>>58040228
Only countries that are far better than the US in everything are Nordics, Switzerland, and Singapore.

You guys have the second lowest labour participation rate in the OECD. Ours only trails Germany.

Wait times are tracked by the province and are only 'atrocious' for hip and knee surgeries because they get put on state disability while they wait. Canadians have similar and in many cases shorter wait times than your average American worker. Nobody disputes that if you have an unlimited bankroll private healthcare is the best but again we're talking about your average 100k/yr family.

I checked against two new york hospitals across the border and we have them beat in almost everything but ER walk ins. Plus I only pay $60/mo in taxes for my family and have full coverage with no bullshit.

Anecdotal evidence isn't evidence
>>
>>58041457
I just posted the government website that publicly tracks all wait times. You posted an unsourced buzzfeed picture. Not very bright eh?
>>
>>58041262

Your natives live 20 years shorter so clearly not everyone enjoys the benefits

>>58040228
Yes but not in everything
