he must of gotten his insurance and gone to the States.
Hi Abby,
funny right after I posted the above post, my friend, who works as a doctor, called. I almost feel embarrassed at how little I know about Canada's Health Care, so I was asking him some questions on it. He seemed to think our medications are, on average, about 65-70% the cost of US medications, but he is only a doctor. Cam is definately the man for that question.
Anyway, here is a web page describing Canada's Health System, complete with charts and graphics, if you're interested.
