dire. possibly your spouse is healthy, skilled, might immigrate to canada? spouses/common-law partners of permanent residents are not inadmissible for conditions considered to cause excessive demand in health and social services('cept for public health risks like TB)

See, this is why I can't understand American fears about a UK-style health service. I pay nothing in health insurance and I got my surgery (for my brain tumour) within 9 days of my consultation. What exactly is wrong with this idea??!

I feel for my American friends who don't have that opportunity.
