There have been cuts but the public system remains firmly in state hands and control with limited private options. Canada's public health system is second-rate.

Those state hands are not attached to the state body but to levers controlled by Big Pharma/CDC now. Every GP works for the regulatory body not the patient. Doctor must follow regulatory body cookbook rules via software that surveils doctor, clinic, pharmacy and patient. Software says what doc must prescribe for the patient, regardless of what the independent science says, the doc thinks, or patient needs. That's exactly why Canada's publicly funded health system is WORSE than second-rate now, thank you. Our infant mortality stats have worsened considerably in ten years due to PHAC, pediatric society and provincial physician regulatory bodies adopting US ACIP vaccine recommendations for pregnant women and infants. We used to be consistently in the top 3 in the world. Our transplant success rates are much higher than US only because we do far fewer of them per capita than US, and marginal patients don't get on the list. But at least poor people who qualify can get them, yay, since doctors' hands and brains are shackled from using real medicine that might prevent the need for transplant if possible. But our death rates from polypharmacy and errors are as bad as the US since Big Pharma convinced the federal government to use taxpayer bucks to buy drugs annually in advance from them, to give free Rx to seniors. The e-surveillance makes sure the provincial Colleges punish doctors who don't order the tests whose results will trigger the AI software to tell them the drugs they must prescribe. And those limited private options such as Cleveland Clinic are STILL controlled by the provincial regulatory bodies controlled by Big Pharma. And naturopaths, TCM docs, physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, acupuncturists, psychotherapists and homeopaths, now regulated professions within the health care system, are not funded, and thus not accessible to low-income patients, but their scope of practice has been dramatically reduced to stop them from practising effective functional integrative medicine.
