Man, I'm jealous.
His country has universal health care and isn't wasting trillions a year policing the world like we are.

I'll let you in on something else. We spend as much taxes per capita on healthcare as America does.
-
Our healthcare system has been deteriorating over the last 5-8 years now though with many healthcare professionals leaving the force for higher paying US opportunities. It's lead to an annoying experience out here for anyone younger than 40 seeking healthcare.
-
Healthcare is also provincially managed
-
It's more to do with the aging population.
-
And more significantly a lack of funding by conservative provincial governments, as the provinces are responsible for funding the system and conservatives have been in power for about the past 6-8 years now in basically every province experiencing health system failures.

Trump will fix that, right?

Zelensky has already said the war will end quicker under Trump, which means he's probably already had a chat with the new regime and is resigned to surrendering most of the land Russia have already taken.
And none of it will stop Russia regrouping and trying again in a few years.
-
I do not know if the war will end quicker under Trump.
But saying it will not end quicker under Trump (now that he's elected) will send you back to politics 101.
IMO.

Massive immigration has pushed our health care system to the breaking point in most provinces, also most of the world is annoyed at us because we're not meeting our NATO 2% GDP military funding. Our military is underfunded, most of our population borders the US so the current government doesn't see a point in military funding since any attack on us would be an attack on the US. Also he raised our taxes to pay for all this aid to other countries, he's not very popular right now because of all his new taxes. The second an election is called, he's out in his ass and TinyTrump will be elected in his place and we'll be in the same boat as you

You fell for the propaganda :(
-
Massive immigration is not why our healthcare systems are at breaking. In fact, they are critical in staffing an understaffed system.
Leading with it, and blaming it, is right into the narrative that is electing these right wing governments.
