Canada doesnt have these kinds of issues with its universal healthcare. We have pioneered new processes to reduce the burden to our medical system [1].

I know you are joking, but the problem is potentially worse in Canada. Private healthcare is illegal in Canada [1]. At least in the UK you can get private health care [2]. You could argue that this is only an option for the wealthy, but my point of comparison is the US, which is similar minus the public option.
