Duh!
Maybe it's because the US rates are sky high for any& all
procedures.... and they charge for every person that so much as looks
your way.
Your provincial plan will cover what the same procedures cost to
perform at home.

Most US surgeons don't make house calls. What's the going rate for a
triple bypass at your house in Noba Skosha.

At least I pay my medical bills........ at least I would if I ever
got one.

You pay. Nova Scotians are taxed like herd sheep. Tell people what you
would pay for a litre of Jim Beam? (26oz bottle)

Or gasoline.

Or utility bills (total).

Or income tax rate for the province?

Provincial taxes are like state taxes.

8.79% on the first $29,590 of taxable income, +
14.95% on the next $29,590, +
16.67% on the next $33,820 +
17.5% on the next $57,000
21% on the amount over $150,000

Add HST of 15% on everything. Buy a $30,000 auto, cut the province a
$4500 check.

You pay, it isn't free. Even cheese is higher, $12.99 in NS, $4.65 on
the US side. Hell, they tax you 18% excise + 15% HST compounded for
winter jackets.

When I lived in the USA, I paid our own health care. I saved $20K in
taxes to fork $5K a year for the to us. Even if I used the service
every year to eat up the delectable of $1000 at the time, I was still a
lot further ahead.

When I bought a car, no HST. Booze was cheap. Going to fairs,
entertainment, all cheaper. Milwaukee Wisconsin Summerfest for two for
less than $50 and we staggered home. Saw leading banks like Foreigner,
Village People and others.... In Canada I couldn't get a single seat for
that.

Fact is you have been very well brainwashed.
