I also love the thousands of Canadians who come across the border to the US each year to receive medical treatment in the US.

Medical tourism isn't just a Canadian phenomena. In fact, 750,000 Americans go overseas for cheaper medical treatment every year.

In fact, 3 neighbor couples all drove up to Montreal a few years back for Lasix surgery there. They payed for a week vacation there (with money left over) from the savings.
