The Healthcare Divide

Uninsured: How Universal is Canada’s Healthcare System?

Episode Notes

Hundreds of thousands of people are living in Canada without health coverage, according to one estimate. So what happens when those people get sick, or hurt, or pregnant? We touch down at Doctors of the World’s Montreal clinic, to get an idea of what it’s like for migrants living in Canada without health insurance.
