Steve It depends on where your statistics come from Steve. Using Statista, Canada's not even in the first 26 countries. Besides these statistics are impossible to measure. Too many variables. Depends on what they're using to compile the data. As far as successful surgeries... example, the surgeons they're getting the success rate from are either poor surgeons (more bad outcomes), or great surgeons (more good outcomes). I did know one Canadian that had to wait for 6 months for cancer surgery. And he had to travel 400 miles. Also, Canadian taxes are 52% higher than the USA. Most of which goes to their health system. As far as the USA, my wife and I have had great experiences with good doctors and great surgeons. John  What is the tax rate in the USA. I know they are the most expensive of the countries that I get royalties from. They charge me 30%, UK 20%, Australia 10%. 30% is federal tax, state tax would be extra. Hey Everett. I was just debunking the myth that Canada’s healthcare is free. I’m sure our tax rate is higher. About 20% of our taxes go to health insurance like Medicare, Obamacare and Medicaid. John

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
