Universal Healthcare

I would like a refund so that I can see an alternative practitioner

Unless you are on your deathbed and seriously ill, you will not be able to see a doctor. This is Canada.

I have a minor health issue. I generally do not go to see a doctor anyway, as I am generally healthy, and especially since COVID, I have absolutely no desire to have anything to do with the healthcare system; however, I am paying for this. What am I paying for? I have a minor health issue that I would like a diagnosis for. Of course, I want to think it is minor, but it seems it would be best to make sure that I am right about that.

Where I live now in Nova Scotia, I am not likely to ever have a family doctor because I have no health issues. I don’t have high blood pressure, diabetes, or any other health issues, so I am not a priority, and I am unlikely to ever be able to get a family doctor. I have put myself on the list to get one, but I know that I will likely never get one unless I get sick. Of course, I am not going to do that just to get a doctor.

I do have this minor issue that I would like someone to look at. But here in Nova Scotia, if I want that to happen, I will need to call every morning at around 8:30 AM to the local clinic and wait……

…….. Even if I call exactly at 8:30 AM on the dot, I will be waiting on hold for 20 minutes to speak with someone. I have done this for two days so far, and each time I am told that they have a pharmacist; however, a pharmacist is not qualified to make a diagnosis for my minor issue.

I am paying taxes like crazy here in Canada, and what do I get for it?

• No healthcare unless I am almost dead, in which case they will try to kill me.

• Censored online because only the government knows the truth.

• The expectation that none of this will resolve, as I continually see people online telling others not to vote because it won’t make a difference because they are all WEF or whatever.

So, if you are one of those people who say “wow, look at Canada, they have universal healthcare, that is so advanced,” I just wanted to let you know that it is nothing special. I really don’t care for it anymore and would be fine with getting rid of it now. Sure, it would be good to have universal healthcare for life-threatening situations, which is what we actually have, even though in many cases, they will just kill you anyway, so what good is that?
