Should there be more or less privatization of hospital and healthcare services?

There should be a two tier system, this would allow those who wish to pay more the opportunity for private treatment while maintaining public health for those who can't afford private. This would also significantly reduce the wait times in hospitals across the country.

We need better access to doctors and 2nd opinions. If privatized care provides people with more immediate options, it should be a choice.

If one can afford to pay for Healthcare issues they be able to... this would decrease the current burden in emergency rooms

I think that there should be options for both because the public healthcare system can be very time-consuming

Have options for both private and public healthcare.

A little bit more then the current system.

we need to be watching for wasteful spending and create more efficiencies where possible

Have a mix of both, privatized will also take help loads off waiting rooms and public hospitals

More, and be covered by mcp

Should be a blend, focused more on government hospitals but give people the option to pay for surgeries in private clinics if they want to.

I would only say more privitization to help improve the system

Free health care should be a given, waiting hours to be seen by a doctor is where the problem is. We need more doctors, more initiative for people to want to be in the health care system.

The current level of privatisation is fine but we need more for public health care

We should allow for a two tiered system in which peole can opt to pay for private care if they are unable to get sufficient access to care or get stuck on lengthy waitlists and need to see specialists.

More funding for public healthcare and allow a second tier of private healthcare for those who can afford it.

a balance. give people the choice if they have the money but still supply government funding to healthcare services

More, as long as the quality of public health care doesn't decrease as a result.

The government should provide robust public health care, but also allow private providers to offer services

Private public healthcare entities can work only if the private company is a non-profit, to control costs yet improve services through competition.

I want to see a mixed system between private and public health care.

Health care should be expanded to include medications and dental

Privatization of hospitals should be legal but regulated through a specific body so health care across the board is equitable and equal.

I like the current system but would like to see more funding

I think we should have both options, our current free health care system and then a private sector for those who prefer, but they won't have the same benefits as those in the free sector.

More and Less! I don't really understand this question!

There should be less privatization as it is a basic human right to healthcare, and with privatization of healthcare services, there are fewer people able to afford their basic human necessities.

More, but keep supporting public healthcare

More privatization of some healthcare, but hospitals and emergency care should never be private.

Privatize healthcare but also provide more government funding.

Option for private health care but basic coverage for everyone

Less wealthy citizens should be charged for services if they can afford it. People unable to fund themselves should be payed for.

no privitization have it under control of the workers

I don't have enough knowledge on this issue to make response

More, book patients as public but with the ability to pay for separate private care to access healthcare with less wait.

There should be a dual system of privatized and public healthcare that both provide adequate care

The current system is fine, but more funding needs to be provided for government Healthcare services

Remove privatization altogether, and increase spending on healthcare so that we can build more facilities in areas that don't have enough, upgrade existing facilities, and hire more doctors and nurses.

If a privatized hospital were to take the pressure off the public system, then someone should be allowed to pay if they are willing.

More, but increase funding in public healthcare.

Reformation, too much negligence and abuse goes on.

Core healthcare services should be government funded and accessible to all Canadians. Canada should be producing our own prescription drugs and ensuring equitable access to all Canadians.
