In Canada the biggest problem Canadian medical care faces is access. They simply do not have the money to offer the proper care. Simply put, they can't pay for it on an as needs basis. So care gets rationed out according to strict rules.
Another problem is the cost. It's very expensive to pay for everyone's health care needs. And about 70 percent of Canadian's carry their own health insurance to cover costs of drugs (which aren't covered under the Canadian system). In British Columbia health care costs are is 42% of the government's budget. It's projected to rise to 80 to 90 percent in coming years.
Instead of costs coming down, the Canadian government continues to face rising costs with no end in sight. This is the fact of government sponsored health care. It sounds nice. But practice and theory are very far apart.
