The system is still functional if you are willing to be patient and not expect fast care for minor ailments. With private care if you can’t afford good insurance you’ll get no care or go bankrupt. As someone who was born and raised in the US and whose family is still there - you don’t want that nonsense

Let’s protect our system by voting in governments at the provincial and federal level (I’ve since become a citizen so I can say “we”) that want to restore and expand access to care and not hand it over to Manulife, Sun Life, Greenshield etc.
