OK. I guess the powers that be can (probably have) review those systems and propose them for here.

At the present time, though, We have a public system and I consider the private system to be less than 200 miles away for 95%+ of Canadians - in the USA. I have no problem with those who have the money travelling there and paying for services. It can only help the situation here.
