An important editorial in The Lancet on health care in Canada. Well worth reading. However it overstates the role of the federal gov't. Ottawa funds less than 25% of health care costs & P/T gov'ts do much more than "administer" the system.
Percentage of Public Health Expenditures Covered by the Canada Health Transfer, 2012-2019 ... from 21% to 23.5%

Canada should stand firm against the assault on the World Health Organization
Despite its imperfections, the WHO has delivered historic successes, which are only possible through the concerted efforts of all nations.
