I don't know a single Canadian who does this.
This is mostly a strawman.
I'll tell you what Canadians tell me: seeing your primary care physician is leagues better in Canada than the US. Much better. Anything behind primary care is leagues worse, for the most part.
Funny that: reality is more nuanced than a binary "this or that." It's never as simple as the strawman Canadian raving about their perfect healthcare system or the conservatard raving about how shitty Canadian healthcare is.
How do Canadians know how easy it is to see an American primary physician?
They don't. It's easy to see a doctor in the US. You call and schedule an appointment.
I know. Saturday I called and today i scheduled for tomorrow. Fairly easy.
We've had the same family doctor for over 18 years. We schedule appointments for regular stuff sure, but if I call up and say, "Doc, I think I need to see you right away." He says, "Sure, come on in." He already knows it's about a 15 minute drive from my place to his office and I just walk right in. Nothing beats that kind of long-term personal relationship.
If you think a bit, you can figure it out.
How do I, an American, know what Canadians think about their healthcare vs. ours?
Canadian boyfriend?
