So Canada can make great players but can't make a GM who can bring them the CUP? The healthcare in Canada is not the same quality that we get in the states. My daughter had to have brain surgery when we lived in Michigan and I spoke with families in Canada that had to take their child to North Dakota to get an MRI because of the wait times and the way the their system worked, and a real lack of adequate equipment. Like 1 MRI machine in the province?
I don't know, I'm in Alaska and we respect them we don't envy them....At all.
One exception is they have a city that rhymes with vagina. That's cool.

Medical tourism or health tourism is the travel of people to another country for the purpose of obtaining medical treatment in that country. Traditionally, people would travel from less developed countries to major medical centers in highly developed countries for medical treatment that was unavailable in their own communities,[1][2] The recent trend is for people to travel from developed countries to third world countries for medical treatments because of cost consideration, though the traditional pattern still continues. Another reason for travel for medical treatment is because some treatments may not be legal in the home country, such as some fertility procedures. ...wiki

Yeah the instance I read about was getting an MRI for the treatment of a large Arachnoid cyst in the brain. Not really your cheap dental work/plastic surgery type medical tourism. If I recall correctly which I may not be it was a situation where they only had one machine in the area and ND was much closer than major city there. In addition to the feeling that better professionals here also. Though probably not in Fargo ND or where ever.

yes. yes we are.
pretty much. If you look into his family tree, he's just returning to where his family came from. The asshole genes of americans is too strong to keep suppressed.
this is true. It blows me away every time. I'll be thinking, fuck these people are dicks, then as the experience goes on, I find out they used to live in the states..

The USA has pretty much the best medical research facilities in the world. The resources of some of those large hospitals truly is amazing.
One mRI machine in a province? Not likely.... maybe in Nunavut? lol
I live in a tiny town (4000 people), and our hospital has an mRI, CT, and bone scan machine.... Without knowing specifically where it was that you were talking about, it'd be impossible to speak accurately about it.
That being said, when people want immediate answers and have the money, they go to the mayo clinic. Their $10,000-15,000 gets the diagnostics done so they can be home in a few days. Gotta pay to play tough. Considering the seriousness and frequency I injure myself (lol) I've never had any problems whatsoever, be it wait times or availability of medicine.
I only know cause one of the guys is from my city so they did a huge thing everyone was either at the curling club or at the big arena and watched itcurling, lol, that' like saying you're a better bowler..

The man has no clue, he deserves to be drawn and quartered. The government has taken what was a pristine country and cut her to pieces, selling to the highest/lowest bidder, screwing it's people out of billions of hard earned dollars. Taking a world class healthcare system and wiping their ass with it, it's tarnished the Canadian image, they've fucking sold us out!!!!!!

What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences and dragged her down
what Mojo really meant.
