But that's luck. Getting amazing care like that is a matter of circumstance in Canada. By luck I don't mean, "it's usually bad, but you got lucky", I simply mean that it all depends on where you live, what doctors happen to be kicking around, what facilities are present and if you manage to talk to the right person with the right pull at the right time.

Good health care is a scarce resource. The US has decided that it will ration it based on who can pay, Canada based on a queue. Both methods have disadvantages.
