7.50 in US or Canadian funds?? I guess either way its a lot, but in canadian it wouldn't seem to be as outrageous.vizsladog44 said:I heard this morning that cigs are 7.50 a pack in canada and it almost all goes towards paying for health care there.I know the gov. pays for health care there but what are the hospitals like?
I believe that it is in road and food taxes that the "state" uses to pay for health care.:confusedmiztress6 said:hmm Isn't Canada socialized medicine so the taxes must reflect it somehow but still the citizens are paying for those![]()

keep in mind the value of our dollar isn't as much as yours, so that still is a lot of money for a pack of cigarettes.
i just quit last friday anyway, wish me luck.

Around here, the hospitals are understaffed. We have a shortage of nurses and doctors. The doctors are cappecd at 400k/year. The nurses make about 45k.vizsladog44 said:I heard this morning that cigs are 7.50 a pack in canada and it almost all goes towards paying for health care there.I know the gov. pays for health care there but what are the hospitals like?

actually the hospitals are cold all the time. If they heat them, the igloo melts and you are in a big flow of water.
We don't have "doctors". We use eskimo Shamans. they drive away the evil sprits using cod liver oil and the cloak of a grizzly bear.
