I would assume this is in relevant to the fact that
Canadians have an unlimited health care system.  As a
Canadian, i'm proud that every hospital provides some
kind of emergency assistance.  It can't provide the
highest level of manufacturing as it's busy trying to
provide for all.  I would agree that US may have five
times as many MRI machines per capita as Canada and
guaranteed shorter waits for such machines but at
least they are available to all individuals.  

Thanks for the thought.
