You've described anecdotal evidence. That's a bit limited.

I just did a Google search on "Canadian health care treatment delay",
4,380,000 results.

Perhaps you'll find this anecdotal evidence more compelling. It's
about half way down the first page of results:

Doing a search to get a number of results isn't much of an argument. If I
google Obama is Hitler, I'm sure I'll get a substantial number also...
fairly meaningless.

Ok. Good link. Next time, use some stats vs. one-ofs. Of course, what you
identified is a lawsuit, which means it hasn't been settled, but clearly
that is, at least, a starting point for a rational discussion.

So, now tell me if you think there's any serious discussion about having the
US move to a Canadian-style scheme? Most people realize will need a uniquely
American program, which will be a hybrid of several systems.
