Compared to other single payer systems like Germany, Canada's system isn't all that great. It is true that serious, life-threatening diseases get adequate care, but for all the other less urgent stuff, it can be a long, painful wait.

Germany does not have a single-payer system. Private insurance is an option if you're self-employed or make a high enough salary.

"Universal system" would have been the right word to use.

I dunno. Germany seems to be having a lot of problems lately, will their medical services maintain that high quality?
