Every location in Quebec? You've been treated at every hospital there? Marty common.
The point is that every Quebecker has the opportunity to experience the healthcare system, free of out of pocket expense. So many people in the US see the greatest hospitals but are ineligible for treatments in them. I think its sane for someone to accept "suspect" quality healthcare over no care whatsoever.
I also don't believe for a second that healtcare in Quebec overall can be accurately described as "suspect"
My point is, if you have to rely entirely on the public system, Canadian healthcare is a bit ghetto, and not just in Quebec. Wait times are long just about everywhere, and family doctors/walk-in clinics are understaffed and under-equipped. I remember being redirected to two other TO clinics to complete a round of tests when I had crippling vertigo, because equipment was lacking in the first two. It was a shit show.
ER wait times are notoriously long everywhere. You go to the ER in Canada, you expect to lose a day of your life.
Things are a bit better when you have complementary private insurance, which I did (and still do through wifey's work) but based on (admittedly anecdotal) evidence I don't think that Canadians with private insurance can access the same level of healthcare that insured Americans can. Wait times are a big thing especially when your condition is serious.
And a Canadian who buys into a private policy, like most people with middle-class jobs do, ends up paying a shitton of money for their "free" healthcare.
But sure, when I hear that millions of Americans go uninsured and can be bankrupted by a trip to the hospital, I'm happy to be part of a country that tries its best to take care of everyone. But that's because I'm still relatively young and healthy. I'm probably not going to praise my country so much when my body and/or mind start falling apart and I can't get a test for 12+ months.
