My spouse is a medical practioner in a Canadian city (not the same one you lived in) and a close friend's wife is a lawyer for the government run health corporation in the same city. Stuff happens pretty much daily in the Canadian medical system that would end up the substance of malpractice lawsuits stateside... and people die that probably shouldn't all of the time.

All I know is that if I get seriously ill while in Canada (and I feel at the time that I'd like to live a little longer) then I'm probably going to insist on being flown down to the US (like pretty much anyone up there who can afford to do so does). I've just been lucky with my health so far and am grateful for it.
