I'm pretty sure he's wrong that it would be free for a non-citizen. Even for citizens you have to get a health card (some provinces like BC require a monthly premium). If your treated in another province you have to get your home province's health plan to cover the costs (you need to reside 3 months epr provence). If you need a surgical procedure expect to wait 6 months to 3 years.

Socialization of healthcare would probably benefit America's poor, but the current system benifits the rest of the worlds poor, America's profit model creates most of the drugs and procedures which the rest of the world uses in their socialized systems.

America's real healthcare problems could be eased by changing tout law so doctors as less liable (those lawsuits are built into fee's), removing requirement for employers to buy health insurance (higher wages and consumer choice), drop regulation around Direct primary care and cash only hospitals, deregulate doctor licensing (replaced by private licensing bodies that patients can opt into), deregulate and streamline FDA drug approval.

American healthcare is like a car dealership that only sells Ferrari's (with all the overpriced options) and people are terrified that letting some Honda Accords onto the road is unfair to people who cant afford Ferrari's so either you pay or you walk. The market for cheap healthcare is being suppressed, the answer is not to confiscate other peoples Ferrari's.
