I'm an American who believed in the Canadian health care dream lots of Americans seemed to be stuck on. Then I researched it a bit. I do not want to pay 60 percent taxes and 15 percent sales tax just so I can wait 8 months for an appointment to do anything. ]]>Nov 6th 2008 5:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/

I did a little research of my own (as I doubt you actually did) and in about 15 seconds on google I found a Canadian tax calculator (http://lsminsurance.ca/calculators/canada/income-tax). I put in my gross income for the year and it quickly reported my income tax (I'm from Ontario) and what that tax is as a percentage of my gross income. Magic number: 19.08%. Sure is nice knowing that my public health care system isn't going to turn me away on a technicality or send me a bill for thousands upon thousands of dollars.

In fact, as an engineer, the single biggest reason I'd never work south of the border (aka the USA for those that are geographically challenged) is that I wouldn't want to take a risk with my health like that.]]>Nov 6th 2008 6:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/Nov 6th 2008 8:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ3oyo-irJ4]]>Nov 7th 2008 2:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/06/changan-electrovaya-teaming-up-to-release-electric-cars-onto-ca/

I drive a 4 door sedan. A 2008 Volvo S60 to be exact.

I would feel safer in a MINI. At least they have the European safety standards which this car is missing.
