Canadians Vs. Americans. Medicare, medicaid, Obamacare... vs the Canadian publicly funded system... and what does private healthcare coverage have to do with any of this? In part of this video series, we'll be taking a high level look at 2 of the most advanced healthcare systems in the world and compare some of the costs with providing healthcare for almost 400 million people. Also, I'd love to hear from anyone with any opinions on any of this stuff as I start prepping for pt. 2
