u.s. vs canada (unscientific) health care poll

Small sample size, and unscientific survey, but interesting nonetheless. From a Daily Kos journal, sent to me by James.
91% of Canadians have never had necessary health care delayed or denied... as opposed to 34% of Americans.

. . .

Total Canadians: 333
Never had necessary health care denied or delayed: 304 votes - 91%
Have had necessary health care denied: 7 votes - 2%
Have had necessary health care delayed: 19 votes - 5%
Have had necessary health care denied and delayed: 3 votes - 1%

Total Americans: 841
Insured, never had necessary health care denied or delayed: 283 votes - 34%
Insured, have had necessary health care denied: 99 votes - 12%
Insured, have had necessary health care delayed: 125 votes - 15%
Insured, have had necessary health care denied and delayed: 122 votes - 15%
Uninsured: 212 votes - 25%

Good graphic representation of this and discussion here.
