It is where I am. We need universal law and schooling to have the icing on the cake.

We have signs at the hospitals here in Canada that warn you if you aren't covered that you'll be charged all kinds of fees, including hospital, and whatever the doctor's hourly rates are.

This is why I don't understand people who say our system is bad. If it isn't dire, then you can wait and it's covered. If it is dire, you get bumped up/rushed in and it's still covered, or, you can choose to pay out of pocket for things like an MRI and get one almost immediately.

Also, working in oil and gas, I know that if you get anything in your eye that isn't viscous, you just rinse it out until it's better. Stuff like this should be common knowledge, sort of like how I'm wondering why they were surprised to get a massive bill in the US. Same thing would have happened here without coverage from social healthcare.
