    It's not better, but it is cheaper for the patient.

    The "our health care is really great, if youre wealthy" answers are so silly on the face of it, Ok, Canadas system is great because poor people can afford it, huh? That doesnt explain why the Premier came here if it costs less in his country.

    Good point and Why did they fly that English actress,who had a skiing accident, over night to the U S They said she was already dead so why was a doctor with her why over night did not their government want to investigate her death

    They flew that women in western Canada to the U S to have her 8 kids They told us there was a bed shortage so that would explain why they flew a high risk

    To let people die just for bragging rights is evil

    More Americans fly to Canada not the other way around WOW I did not think any could top ''a white man is safer in a black community than a black man in a white community'' But y'all topped that one Do you people ever think before you speak?

    After retiring from the US military and living in Canada for ten years I found thier medical system far superior then the system in the US .

    And I have pretty good insurance compared to most people..

    Better technology. That's about it .. and maybe less specialists. With a population of ours we're getting by pretty well, and we don't pay thousands to do it.

    I've always been pleased with the healthcare in the United States. Why mess with it?

    There could be a number of reasons, why not wait until more information comes out?

    Our healthcare system is very good if you're wealthy and have insurance.

    If you don't, eh...not so much.

    However, to address your question, more Americans travel to Canada for healthcare than the other way around.
