This is biased logic. We should be able to get the free healthcare we are paying taxes for.
Paid heathcare is better. As a Canadian with free healthcare, I just want to pay someone to get done what I want to get done.

Dunno if Canada is similar:
It’s not the same at least in QC.
even if you do not have private insurance, you can have access to free healthcare in hospitals, and medication.
If you have private insurance, you will be using that instead, especially to get medication, etc..
The problem in Canada, is the lack of resources, not enough doctors, and nurses to cover everyone’s needs.
Fair. But I dont want to pay taxes for it at all. I rather pocket my earnings and pay for what I need. For healthcare at least.
