I would never trade in a Canadian style health care system for one run by the private sector. I truly believe the gov't does a far better job of running health care than any private insurer.
I think you would be hard pressed to find too many Canadians who would choose to abandon OHIP in favour of an American style system (we had it a long time ago and we got rid of it. In fact every other industrialized country in the world has a health care system in place, except the US.)
No system is perfect, but for the most part, i am happy with the system that we have. It could always use a tune up, but it is a long way from broke.
I am sure that if i was feeling really ambitious right now, i could dig up a dozen websites that talk about the benefits of our system. I just think that it's pretty good.
