Yes they do, though just answering the question at face value would give you an incorrect impression of the merit of publicly held utilities. Having the government run health care gives the government control over health care. As a Canadian, I have been both grateful for the care I've been given and frustrated by the control they have over how I take care of myself.

But as a member if the collective you have power to change that. Whereas in a orivste system you have no say over it and the people running it have more incentive to screw you over.

Canada may not have a perfect healthcsre system but its miles better than the US system.
