Health

Canada has a health care system that covers all Canadians and is funded by Canadian citizens’ taxes. The health care system in Canada is a good idea because health in some countries of the world is very expensive, especially when a person needs a major surgery and needs to stay in the hospital for a few days. My experience with the Canadian health care system is amazing. I had a disc surgery in my back two years ago. They took really good care of me. When I went home, a physicist came and checked on me every week. The surgery cost me nothing. If I were to do this surgery in another country such as the USA, it would cost me a lot. Overall, the Canadian health care system is one of the best in the world, and if I were to rate it, I would give it 10/10.
