Now Thats what a President should be like..fighting for his peoples best interest
Unlike Trump and his political followers (Republicans) who say they are fighting for the people's best interests while robbing them behind their backs. "Yes! Please lower taxes for yourself and then eventually raise them on me! When you have more money you will give me more right? RIGHT???"
Oscar Blake You got that right absolutely a man for the people,with strong integrity and gives up !Not many men like Bernie come to us very few.
But here is a question. Would Bernie Sanders also be on "Medicare"? Or will he continue to have top quality health care because he's so rich? What i'm cautious about is if he is trying to make everyone the same amount of poor, or if he is truly trying to bring people up.
I hope people listen to what Bernie Sanders says when he warns Canada to not become like the United States and what he said about dental care. Good on him.
That will never happen
I nominate Bernie Sanders as an honorary Canadian citizen, and then for an Order of Canada. This is a fine American, and a welcome friend to Canadians.
You better dig some facts before supporting him blindly. He is a hyprocrate and has link to corruption. In fact, He is more corrupt than Trump, and he is a lesser of two evil if you compare him with Hillary. Make sure to check his tax record too.
Lumby1 I want the same
Funny how we can actually check Sander's tax record, while not being able to check Trump, but somehow we are meant to believe that Trump is less corrupt than Sanders. You Russian trolls are going to need to step up your game, since the public is now aware of what you do.
It's really not very funny at all, rjh00, in so many ways. It saddens me that the shining America of WW2, and space, and knowledge and ideals, and wealth and justice, no longer seems 'Great' anymore. Small and petty and corrupt and dangerous, ruled by a tiny elite, just like in the 'bad old days', and a lot of people unable or unwilling to think of a better way.
Oops, I'm sorry, somehow my reply went to you instead of Abusayeed Haque, which replied saying that Sanders is more corrupt then Trump, than says to check Sander's tax records, something that we can actually do, unlike with Trump, which we can't.
I wasn't trying to talk bad about you or your comment, was just being sarcastic towards the other guy. Everything you said is right and it really is sad what has happened to the USA. I was thinking of a reply to your initial comment, which was a bit funny but I didn't post it, but I will post it now. Bernie is from Vermont, which is almost Canada so making him a honorary Canadian wouldn't be too far off :P
Thank you Bernie for your contribution to makiing integrity and character still important in politics. Keep it up!
Lucky to be a Canadian.
I hope you'll find a GP soon. No one should be without one. I am lucky to live in Toronto and has a GP as well as a walk-in clinic. Canada's healthcare does need major improvement.
@RZ _ Canada is the second largest country in the World, if you live outside any city large or small. That's the price you pay for living in the boonies, I lived in Brampton and Midland Ontario for a year. Finding a Doctor can be time consuming if your looking for a specific doctor [Man or woman]. Doctor's by law can only take on so many patients, so making a few phone calls and finding Doctors who aren't accepting patients isn't a gauge of how many doctors we have in Canada. FYI_ Walk-in Clinics are everywhere and they take anyone that needs immediate care. You like anyone else should take time to find a Doctor that you feel comfortable with. I have a great doctor, and I actually found him while I was visiting a walk-in Clinic. Walk-in Clinic are way better equipped than some family practice office in some office building. Walk-ins do day surgery and have all the diagnostic equipment you'd need, which save spending hours in the hospital. I laugh at people who complain about spending hours at the hospital for diagnostic testing. If you set up an appointment with the Doctor, you might have to wait a week or two. But, you'll have an appointment and be seen promptly and end up spending no more than an hour at the Clinic. What do people expect going to the hospital without an appointment for a non-critical condition. I'm actually glad you had to wait 6-8hrs, what makes you so bloody special that you should just be able to cut in line for a quick diagnosis. JERKS!!!
Joel Richard I had no problem. My GP retired and I got a list of available GP’s in my area and got a new one right away.
@@Torontogal1973 LOL! Shorter wait times would be better. And less automation. Things get lost when offices rely to heavily on computers and using "the team approach". I'm out $10 because my GP didn't renew my prescription properly. A small price to pay for usually free to me medical services, but still. . . Also, I had to threaten the Sleep Clinic I go to to get a new C-PAP with the involvement of the College of Physicians and Surgeons when its computer cancelled my appointment when I didn't get an e-mail with a form I had to fill out before the appointment. Why didn't I get the form? Because a human at the Sleep Clinic changed my e-mail address which she got from somewhere probably me or my husband! A little too much efficiency, guys!
President or not, Bernie will be a forever role model in the world of what a senator (public servant) suppose to be. A true representative of the people, of course it would be a blessing to have him as your leader!
Agreed. With people like him, the government of the people, for the people, and by the people shall not perish from the Earth.
He will be in the history books, even if he doesn’t win. He has changed the party and the view of the American people.
I give this man great respect for what he stands for.
Bernie Sanders--I agree with you 100% as a former nurse in Washington, DC. I applaud your hard work--now if Americans can only get the message. Medicare for all works for elders and it can work for the citizens of all ages in the USA.
I agree with you. I've worked in healthcare insurance here in Alabama and Michigan for over a decade. Healthcare and education should be a basic necessity to live in our world.
TruztNo1 You didn't hear where he said Canadians have issues BUT it's something we're worse at so we must look to y'all to see what's working or not working to help fix our broken system.
Duel Healthcare system, why don't you ask the people in Australia how's that working for you. They adopted a Private/Government system in the 1990's and it's a complete disaster.
Daphne Fowler:
Thank you for your service to the overlords of government-managed social engineering. You may now proceed to the Soylent Paisley Complex for processing.
OK then I AM still a nurse...once educated...cannot be taken away!
I love this man.
hahaha you should seek help
Bernie Sanders should be the president not Donald Trump......Bernie Sanders cares about people no matter what race, color, or working class you come from. The USA would be way better off with him.
I am continually grateful to be Canadian. I know that our health system is overburdened and in need of major financial infusions, but we are still profoundly lucky to have what we have. And I am thinking that the legalization of recreational cannabis will inject large amounts of revenue into the health care system.
I totally agree with you. Canadians are so incredibly lucky to live where we do
Hopefully the government can manage the sales of cannabis well
My thoughts exactly. Lucky to be a Canadian.
Sandra Nelson I'd much rather spend our tax money on health care for everyone than nuclear weapons. It's really a no-brainer
Yes. Though I'd never do weed, I'm happy for others to be taxed for my healthcare!
I am originally from Germany living in Canada and I must say that the German health care system is a lot older, starting in 1873 under Bismarck and it evolved into the Health Care system as it now. Under this system every on is insured and includes dentistry, pharma care, vision care. Bernie Sanders, please look at the German Health Care system.
LOL! He's Jewish and his father's family in Poland was wiped out during the 2nd World War. I doubt he'll look at the German system very soon! But you are right: we should look to other countries to see what we should be providing even if it means plugging a few holes in our tax laws and more enforcement of regulations so we have the money to do that..
Excellent - thanks for covering Sanders' talk.
We need you Bernie!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Americans made a huge mistake. Sanders makes sense and that is what is missing in politics.
If Bernie had had the same publicity Trump got instead of near total blackout things may have been different.
You are right, Bernie makes sense. We can talk about left and right, but today left just 'makes sense'.
ua-cam.com/video/6IL-dpHH5xw/v-deo.html
Health care IS a human right! Thank you for fighting for it in the U.S.
Joel, you are paying for it either way....the single-payer system is farrrr better than what the USA has. If you are an anti-taxer, then you will hate any sort of governance funded by taxes. then there is no changing your mind other than me pointing out that if you make an income it's a choice. and when you choose to make an income you are choosing to take advantages of the economic infrastructure that is funded by taxes. and if you don't want to pay your part of taxes back into keep that infrastructure funded, there is a word for that: Parasite. Don't be a parasite. Don't wanna pay taxes...Don't make a monetary income!
Sanders shoulda been the prez
Tony Rizutto but why is he not the prez?
Tony Rizutto yes
Johnson Long because of WS.
Totally agree
Talia Price or, just maybe, he's policies aren't really that popular due to he's logic flaws.
How come the American media never showed this speech on your networks? You American media should be ashamed of yourself.
Sanders keeps saying the same thing during the Presidential race. Win or lose, he's raising the issues! The pandemic should focus Americans' attention on their healthcare system or lack thereof.
This man needs to run in 2020, he would destroy Trump, it would be a clear absolute victori.
If he can get by the Democratic Primaries he would crush Trump.
So he should run as an independant or with the Green party
Proud to be a Western European. Your medicare system seems so absurd to me ...
Proud to be American, and proud to be a supporter of Bernie Sanders for many years.
I hardly understand how the american people voted Trump instead of this excellent and intelligent politician, Bernie Sanders. Best from Greenland.
We didn't vote for Trump. Hillary Clinton got 3 million more votes than Trump. The real question is why did the Democratic Party nominate Hillary Clinton instead of Bernie Sanders. Now THAT is a story of cheating and corruption. I believe is Trump had run against Bernie instead of Hillary, Bernie would have won and would be president now.
We want you Bernie
Bernie is such a good speaker, so authentic
Fun fact: Tommy Douglas is the maternal grandfather of Kiefer Sutherland.
As Canadian , I personally have so much respect for the American people but in my humble opinion you guys made a monumental mistake by not electing Mr. Sanders , He is so freaking awesome !
I love this man
Justin, you up? We want friends like this, don't get too cozy with Trump, something might rub off, something unCanadian.
Thank you Senator Sanders for addressing issues with strength and integrity.
If he runs for prime minister he's got my vote I think he actually cares about people
Bernie's point about health insurance being independent of employment is a big deal. Today I got layed off -- the new corporate owners decided to cut staff in order to boost profits. Dealing with that is bad enough, but to know that even one day of not being covered risks financial ruin, the stress is a disaster. Imagine how bad it is for someone who wasn't able to save up as much for that "rainy day".
Just had a Hip replacement in Canada I pay 32 dollars a month for heath care my costs for the new hip 0 cost for Physiotherapy 0 walker crutches 0
Come to Canada Bernie!
Bernie Canada LOVES YOU!!!!!
No slurring, no speech impediments, coherent message..Sounds good for a septuagenarian..
It's such a great honor to have mister Bernie Sanders in Canada. THAT is what we can call A MAN OF CONVICTION. The equation is very simple and easy to understand: If we take a look at the most happy populations in the world, the top countries are all very liberal. Progress is the key.
Bernie Sanders must be respected Amen!
And protected at all costs 💕
Keep up the intelligent approach to Healthcare Bernie. Education eventually enlightens the mind.
“The measure of a civilization is how it treats its weakest members.” Mahatma Gandhi
Bernie is wearing a poppy!! Aww. Thank you!
Jumping in here now. I had an infection in my thumb last Thursday from knicking it with a knife while cooking. Saw a doctor Thursday morning. He drained it. I got topical antibiotics. He called me Friday to look at it on a video call. Then prescribed oral antibiotics. It’s almost better now. Cost me $0. Canadian health care has always been good for me and my family.
Bernie sanders was in Canada.... why Toronto .. Come to Vancouver please !!! I want to see that beautiful face of yours mr. sanders.
He wasn't in Toronto for this, he was in Windsor
Dennis..He was at University of Toronto where this speech was given at Convocation Hall. My daughter was there. 20,000 people tried to see him and the tickets sold out in 1 minute.
The reason he was in Toronto was that Dr. Danielle Martin, (who spoke to the US Senate) a family doctor and VP of Women's College Hospital, along with CEO Marilyn Emery, Kathleen Wynne (the Premier) gave him tours of their hospital, along with a group he brought with him. He wanted to see a Canadian hospital and how they operate and hear more about the Canadian healthcare system.
The German Health Care system started in Germany in 1893 for the blue collar system by Bismarck. It did not start in England but in Germany. Please, get your history correct.
I give you the 46th President of the United States of America (maybe 47th if Trump is impeached or steps down)
Tell it like it is Bernie, love it.
Its unfathomable for us Canadian that any politician would want to remove our universal healthcare system. That's why we can't don't try to combat the GOP's logic, we don't even know where to begin.
Bernie is a man of the people.
I live in Atlantic Canada our health care isn't perfect but I have several health issues I'm retired .. Over the last 10 years I've had too many to count , MRI's , CT scans , X-rays (my knees are shot) .. Only out of pocket cost has been $8.00 parking ..
Bernie asks, "What does freedom mean?". Finally.
#STILLSANDERS #FEELTHEBERN
It is incredible that a politician would actually travel abroad to study and learn about other countries policies! #bernie2020 #thenewdeal
that's my university...
....love you Bernie!
I am 28 million w/o insurance
Audio thin, volume a bit low (:-( and too much room reverb. (:-(
Docta
We must each do our part and ask our friends and families to do the same. We can communicate to our reps and our, "reps," that Medicare for All is critical. Proven time and again, over time, to deliver the best care for the lowest cost. Our largest Nurses Association, along with 2,000+ doctors support this crucial change. The doctors state they can no longer deliver appropriate care and the administrative/billing costs of the current circumstance is ruining our healthcare.
Bernie is the best. Brooklyn baby
I think the German Health Care system is even better than the Canadian Health Care system because it includes Dental Care, Vision Care and Pharma Care. The German Health Care system consists of different Health Insurance Plans but all people in Germany are insured. So, Canada why don't you look at the German system? I was born in Germany and Bismarck created the first Health Care Plan of the World in 1893. Sanders should look into the Bismarck Health Care plan. The Bismarck Health Care plan was for the "blue collar workers" and which no other country had. So, don't talk about the British Health Care system because the first Health Care system was in Germany and created by Bismarck.
Why did not talk about the German Health Care system which started in 1893 for the blue collar workers by Bismarck. It did not start in England.
WE WANT TO KNOW THE LIST OF POLITICIANS WHO OPPOSE THE MEDICARE FOR ALL PLAN.
Did it pass is the question??
It's a sad reality that Bernie would have been booed off the stage for this speech at home...Don't ever give up good sir.
Bernie Sanders is wrong, the Health Care system started in 1893 in Germany under Bismark. He implemented a Health Care system for "blue collar workers" because they had no Health Care plan whatsoever. It was not Great Britain. After WW2, Germany expanded this particular Health Care plan to other people. Which means different Insurance Plans but still Government directed. All different Insurance Plans included Vision Care, Pharma Care and Dental Care. Germany has private health clinics but they have to comply according to the German law and their doctors have to accept anybody, no matter what Insurance Plan they are on. That is the law. Doctors can not switch from one Health Insurance plan to another and only accept certain patients from certain plans. This is considered illegal and would be considered being prosecuted by the German Government.
And after 1945, the Health Care system changed in Germany to all the people of Germany and still includes now Vision Care, Pharma Care and Dental Care. So what Health Care Plan in the world include these plans? Not the British, not the Canadians and certainly not the US.
Bravo , bernie
What Bernie doesn't want you to know or may not know, If you like Canadian healthcare Americans can go to Canada and get healthcare there without cost.
That is not true, Americans cannot come to Canada and get free health care!!! This health care is for Canadians only!
LIST IN ALL NEWS OUTLETS THE POLITICIANS WHO OPPOSE MEDICARE FOR ALL.
making a play for PM of canada
i was so upset when i found out late about him coming :(
Has M. Sanders annonced what he will do in 2020 ?
I live in Germany but im English. When i need a Doctor, i go . At the worst, i may have to wait an hour to be seen but i always get seen and get the best Medical advice she can give me. She will refer me to a a Hospital or Specialist, if needed. It doesnt cost me anything, just need to show my Health Insurance card. Any young people who may read this and think , im fine, i dont need this, just wait till you get older. Everything you may have built up in your life could dissapear in seconds with an unexpected Health Bill!
@Jenn smith "best system"
There are annually 45 touhsand americans dying due to the lack of healthcare.
America also spends double compared to other nations on healthcare per capita. This is due to it being ran by the free market. The purpose of a business is to make money. Americans are paying double price for terrible healthcare, where the insurance company finds some loophole ot get out of paying when you need it.
The american healthcare is by no means the best. It is the best for the top 1%. For everyone else, it's really bad.
min 8:20 Tommy fu%$in Douglas!!! Fu%$ YEAH!!
🏆
you pay taxes, you pay for your health care
This was 5 years ago .. So what happened to the USA .. They are still dead last in health care worldwide .. $300-700 just to have a doctor appointment only .. $10,000 just to have a baby , and $40 extra if you want to hold your newborn baby .. $5000-7000 for a broken bone ... LOL ... THATS INSANE ...
this man should've been president...
#Bernie2020
You should try Korean health care instead of looking at western systems
Which Korea?
North Korea
This be my side bish right here ^^^
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would challenge that people don't know a good thing when they have it. Look at global political trends. That paints the picture. People are gullible and will listen to those who have money. Even to their own own demise. "Tax rich people less because when they have money they will give me some!" Haha. That's funny. "Shut down borders to immigration and trade! They are taking our jobs!" - ignoring the fact that those policies have made your country what it is - Germany being the #1 economy in Europe. - USA being the #1 economy in the world.
Bernie bros need to realize that Yang is everything Bernie stands for and some. Not to be age-ist but Bernie would be 79 if elected. I love Bernie and all but Yang is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the US and the world. We need 21st century solutions and need to start thinking about the future.
To add on to the age point. If Bernie was to be elected what are his chances of him running again in 2024 at the age of 83 to end his term at the age of 87 😦. And even if he did....do you want someone that old in the WH? The chances are slim which means it’ll provide an opening for Republicans to take the WH again.
Credits to @ Adam A.
The US can learn alot from Canada, but there is an overwhelming dumb population of United Statesians who are VERY ignorant on Canada period. Make no wonder they are a "disgrace". But Bernie, Bernie iss alright, how Hillary beat him i will never know but how Trump got in, is still unbelievable.
That thing should step down or be thrown out just for the conflict of interest he has with cutting his own Corp. taxes. I also respect and appreciate Bernies knowledge of Canada, it's history and close relations with the common-wealth.
You are a good person at heart with real perspective and would be good for the US, especially in repairing the damage caused from the age of Trump around the world, with the common-wealth and within the US, with much respect. Bernie is one that seems to go by "do onto one as you would want one to do onto you" Bernie for Prime Minister!😂
the state of Vermont turned down single heath care because it was to expensive. if it was so cheap why hasn't the state of Vermont implemented it.
Vermont is a poor state California can do it big economy
Each year in South Carolina we prepare for the snowbirds who come to South Carolina to vacation yet mostly for medical surgeries they are unable to receive in Canada because as they put it the long lines of 1 or more years to wait. You do not understand that 50 percent of their pay check is taxed just for the health care.
He's a fruit cake. Canada has 36+ million, the US has 320 million. how will you pay for it. he will not say.
More population = more expenses, but it also means more taxpayers to pay those expenses, doesn't it?
CBTela some people are too intellectually challenged to use basic logic. 🇨🇦
Jezz we have 36 million paying taxes to cover health care for 36 million. You have 320 million to pays taxes to cover I don't know 320 million. Not rocket science.
Pay for Universal Healthcare by cutting money from the military.
Hi from Canada! Regarding socialized medicine...we pay a good chunk in taxes (42%) toward healthcare and we are barely handling it now. ie. long waits at Hospitals for emergency services, backlog of diagnostic services and delays of months to years for elective procedures.
By 2030 we will be totally screwed! That's when the bulk of the baby boomer population gets really old and will continue to get really old until about 2050. This will put a HUGE burden on our healthcare system.
Bernie is full of propaganda, while he has some great points he's very disingenuous when it comes to the opinions of the opposing side.
Canada's population is no where close to the population in the United states the cost of single payer health care here would be trillions and with millions of people entering the country illegally not paying taxes but would use the health care system and then there is the corrupt government that would keep the high dollar insurance the taxpayers pay for
Always complaining about the 1% when he is part of that same group. Why is it okay for him to own three homes, but not others?
What Mr. Sanders fails to grasp is in fact that waiting lists for some procedures are years long, numerous procedures aren't covered, and emergency room wait times can exceed 9 hours on a normal day! At least he realized how expensive prescription drugs are here.
Still better then dying and no care.
Throw half of people off your care then be faster for ones left. Only make sure your not in the group getting thrown off
You have no clue what you are on about! Lower income people and families can check a box on their income taxes to get Medicate, which gives them some health coverage. If they don't tick that box, that is their problem and they have to pay a penalty if they want it after the income tax deadline has passed. Health insurance is provided by most companies for working people.
There are always going to be people who would rather have something for nothing than pay for something better. What good is what people perceive as free (we pay for it with our insanely high taxes) if it honestly isn't worth having outside of a common cold!?!
Comrade Politburist Sanders and The Party would have brought us glorious revolutionary socialist people's liberation from our earnings.
