This video tells the remarkable story of Lindsay McCreith, a retired Canadian who had a stage two cancerous brain tumor.
McCreith was told it would take four-and-a-half months to get an MRI in Canada. So he came to the United States and got one done in one day. Then, after Canadian doctors saw the tumor on his MRI, he was told he would have to wait three months to see a surgeon. So he returned to the United States and was scheduled for surgery the same week. The process that would have taken eight months in Canada took just six weeks in the United States.
Luckily, McCreith turned to a Canadian company called Timely Medical Alternatives for help.
Doesn’t the fact that a company named Timely Medical Alternatives exists tell you everything you need to know about healthcare in Canada?

Watch OUT AMERICA!
This is one of the best videos I’ve yet seen on the subject. It’s one I can send my liberal friends and family. Thank you for finding and publishing it. I love getting this information that I don’t see elsewhere.
Canadian health systems themselves (that are run by the provinces) also send Canadian patients to the U.S. for treatments unavailable here, either due to lack of facilities (e.g. all the premature birth “beds” in a specific hospital are full) or to shorten waiting lists. You can probably Google news reports about the most outrageous cases; or find some government or medical papers about numbers treated in the U.S.
