Health care in Canada is only free to the ones without a job and certain ethnics. It is tax funded.
I live in a small town, and it is a struggle to get an appointment with our family practioner. The quality of care is good. To get an MRI, we have to travel 225 miles, but the province of Ontario gives us a travel grant to help defray the costs. Again - that is not free -- it comes in the form of higher taxes.
