There should be more of both public and private infrastructures and private services should be regulated to some extent to avoid fees getting out of control.

Private clinics should be permitted but receive no government funding. Additionally, we need to allow more nurse practitioners to offer the same services as family GPs, produce more doctors (or promote immigration of Dr.s from other countries), but we need to reign in the salaries of doctors. There is no reason a GP should make 3 to 500k per year after receiving a taxpayer subsidized education. GP salaries and Nurse practitioner salaries could be 180k to 225k for providing family practice services and that would be a fair wage for services offered. If domestically produced Dr.s leave the country they can pay back the government for the subsidized education they received.

I think that providing more privatization with in the health care field would reduce wait times, that said I believe in universal health care, and think that Canada could do a better job of mixing the two sectors. That being said the reality is we currently have a doctors shortage so we need to increase the amount of medical schools.
@9VFXSQP6mos6MO
I am satisfied with the current system, but please add more hospitals and doctors to avoid wait times
@9FDGX7J2yrs2Y
Non emergency patients should not be going to the ER
@968Q88X3yrs3Y

Unvaccinated should have to pay their way
@8VRTYGR4yrs4Y
We should stop paying for junkies drugs
@8VLKD3Z4yrs4Y
We need a mixture system,
Both private and social.
For surgerys its all covered by the people through taxes.
For minor visits we pay a small fee (unless its an emergancy)
We have far too many good doctors leave for the USA for a bigger pay cheque, we need to keep them here.
This should also help reduce wait times
@8VHTPRZ4yrs4Y
Subsidize naturopathic and holistic/preventative care and other paramedical services. Make them accessible and affordable to more people so less reliant on pharmaceuticals
@8TY2YD24yrs4Y
Less, there should be no privatization of the healthcare and provide more fundings
@8NZ6NH64yrs4Y
More, but not at the expense of public access
@8JMHND84yrs4Y
More options could be available and partially covered depending on the intervention
@8DJX3W85yrs5Y
I believe that people should have the choice to go to a private hospital or a public hospital, but only in extreme circumstances and there needs to be a limit on the number of private hospitals. I believe that people should have the right to pay to get faster healthcare. However for people who do not have the money, they can go to the public hospitals.
@9B94V9X2yrs2Y
More, so long as my taxes reflect that I will be paying out of pocket for healthcare.
@98SKZRB2yrs2Y
More, but universally remains paramount
@94BCJHRConservative3yrs3Y
More, but ensure that it is working within our universal system
