@OilerAnalytics He's supporting cast at best.

Would never be picked to lead a team.

@TheDaDaDum @stephen_taylor If you go to the emergency room for a runny nose, you should wait days.

It's called triage for a reason.

Americans don't understand this is what skews the waiting for care number.

Why doesn't it happen there? Because that runny nose visit will cost you $3000. And no coverage

[John @greeeced]

@stephen_taylor His consulting doctor said this has to be done in the hospital or other like sterile environment.

Insurance company denied coverage because they said it could have been done in the doctor's office. Completely not a sterile environment.

You could fight it, sure. But that's $$$

[John @greeeced]

@stephen_taylor I'm Canadian. And I would much rather have our "broken system" than having to fight insurance companies for coverage or live with insurmountable debt.

Ask any American who ever had something expensive done.

I know a guy in the US that had to get a cyst removed. 1/2.

[John @greeeced]

@JeffLeonard144 @aspergery @stephen_taylor You're right as it does well beyond the black population, which is way down the list of prevalent factors.

I'd much rather be living with the health care we have than fighting insurance companies on coverage and/or insurmountable debt.

Your lives depend on ability to pay for it

[John @greeeced]

@JeffLeonard144 @aspergery @stephen_taylor And by the way. Just Google

"what brings down Americans life expectancy compared to Canada"

You'll find the AI answer quite telling.

But for your narrative let's not count this bullshit stat

[John @greeeced]

@JeffLeonard144 @aspergery @stephen_taylor Umm. It actually does.. but you do you sport.

[John @greeeced]

@kcsandiford @mademoderate @grok @aspergery @stephen_taylor By the way, sorry for your loss. Pretty shitty. I'm a little confused how optional surgery can cause death waiting for it.

Unless I'm missing the between the lines

[John @greeeced]

@kcsandiford @mademoderate @grok @aspergery @stephen_taylor Listen, I'm not saying it doesn't happen, it does.

Fact remains that Americans don't keep this stat the way public healthcare does.

To say it doesn't happen in the US, and maybe at a higher percentage is ludicrous.

You must compare apples to apples. But you can't.

[John @greeeced]

@SaraHermanw0 Obama was president 47 years ago?

Wow how time flies

[John @greeeced]

@aspergery @stephen_taylor @grok And you just somewhat screwed your own point by asking grok.

The deaths are concurrent and not specifically proven to be from waiting.

Try again

[John @greeeced]

@aspergery @stephen_taylor @grok Why don't you compare that to US gun related deaths?

Secondly, the USA doesn't keep track of waiting room deaths. How could they? You think privatized waiting rooms want that tag on them?

Nothing on the life expectancy or insurance huh?

Love the skewed narrative of yours

[John @greeeced]

@aspergery @stephen_taylor Is that why Canada's average life expectancy is 82 and the US 79?

Hmm... Must be all those people dying waiting for surgery.

Unless you have facts/proof, sit down. Which you don't

How many in the US die due to lack of health insurance?

Get educated.

@ravingofamadman Education is a real thing.

[John @greeeced]

@SilentSnow89 "Quite" the cartoon characters.

Comic strips for Poilievre!

[John @greeeced]

@Scarletkoito333 I would like an honest answer to this one.

Why were female sports created in the first place?

It's a legitimate question.

[John @greeeced]

@Scarletkoito333 Oh I don't know... By not voting for him the first time and then the second time?

Education. It's a real thing.

[John @greeeced]

@RC2019SCC @Leegrasemann This is exactly my point. Thank you.

JS even made it in Leno for his performance. Lol

[John @greeeced]

@RC2019SCC @Leegrasemann Point being. If you're a true hockey fan, I'm sure you've seen your fair share of goalies standing on their heads and stealing games. Roy, Price, Lundqvist, Andersen....

Many games where teams had no business being in them and severely outplayed. But still win.

This was one.

[John @greeeced]

@RC2019SCC @Leegrasemann Canada WAS the better team. Even American analysts said so. Hellebuyck stood on his head. I mean he's the best goalie-bar none, it was expected

I never said he wasn't part of the team. He was. And congrats to them

But to say the US was better? Hellebuyck was. The rest weren't
