That's not the same, as there are tens of millions of people that don't have access to affordable healthcare in the USA. In Canada (and a host of other developed countries) there are none.

No it wasn't.
The claim very clearly was: "Canada has much less of a problem with x,y & z and far fewer people who are desperate or struggling than the USA does".
And you said “You simply don't have that in Canada, the social safety net takes that away.” which is BS. Yes you have it. To a lesser degree than the US, but you have it.
And how many people just died in BC from the heat wave? 150+? How many in the US? The Canadian healthcare system might be universal but it’s poorly funded and easily overwhelmed.
The claim was "Canada doesn't have a problem with violent crime, violent policing [ask First Nations folks about that!], or people who are desperate or struggling".
Which I said, is bullshit.
