Abstract
The author reflects on the difference between Canada and the U.S. with regards to the payment and provision of health care to the public. He argues that the health care system of Canada offers a wide variety of health plans and services to people, regardless of their social status. On the other hand, the U.S. offers health care services and plans to people who are capable of paying such expenses. An overview of the health care systems of the two countries is offered.
