"What I mainly recall is politicians telling us over and over again down through the decades that Canadian medicare is the best health-care system in the world. You don’t actually hear that much anymore. What politicians mainly stress now is that our system is better than the American. Maybe it is — though if you’re after the very latest technology and technique, it probably isn’t."
