    As a Canadian, I will always find that absolutely unbelievable about American private health care … when someone or a family is at their lowest and during the most terrible times of their lives and health care people go up to them and say … ‘We’re sorry for your suffering and your loss … but here’s the medical bill you owe money on’

      I think I was in my twenties before I found out that children have to pay for their healthcare. It just seems …insane. And inhumane.

      I had numerous health issues as a child, had them all sorted at no cost. Anything else seems weird.
