As a Canuck I can whole-heartedly: yes. I pay for supplemental health care (~300/mth for a family of 3) on top of universal, but we've been considering ditching it.
As another Canuck, same here. I've gone without benefits sometimes (waiting periods for spouse's new jobs) but that means putting off new glasses or dental cleanings for a few months, not skipping dr's appointments or worrying about breaking an arm.
