Actually we do not, when compared to all of the countries mentioned by Demento. We continually disparage the US system as dreadful and then go on to say our system is better than a system we think is terrible. Why do we never compare our socialist system with its attendant outrageous wait times with the likes of Australia's or Germany's or Singapore's. All much better systems with negligible wait times. As an example, in Alberta knee surgery from go to whoa 22 months - in Australia 8 weeks. Give your head a shake, our system is a truly dreadful reflection on what socialism does to a country.
