> Canada might not be the worst but their healthcare only cover 60-70% of canadians' need. And it's slowly getting worse with the private sector eating the market.

What's that figure based on?

Wikipedia has a very exhaustive page regarding Canada's healthcare system, and a large section at the end about its flaws and problems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_Canada

I was asking about that figure in particular. I thought it was an actual statistic.

For the government, this is a feature, not a bug.

A large percentage of health care costs are from the last year of life. Instead of expensive interventions the government can have patients volunteer to end their life, the savings would be significant.
