Realities of moving to Canada today + future prospects

It may not be free but thank fucking god the average person doesnt have to choose between going to a hospital for something completely treatable or being financially secure. Don't even want to think about the poor souls who are crippled for life because they need a medication to survive or live a fulfilling life.

I'm a healthy mid 20s guys who's never had any medications, surgeries or otherwise serious illnesses. In the last couple years I've probably been to the hospital 5+ times and I'm sure if we didn't have the system we do I would be paying off those trips for the next 10 or more years. No backyard treatments or ignoring symptoms for this Canadian.
