There's a lot wrong with OHIP[1] but this sort of thing leaves me wondering why there aren't a whole lot of bodies dangling from lampposts every time someone in the US posts about it.
[1] wretched tendencies to use money as a metric of health outcomes; a refusal to set taxes by the service level; letting people with business degrees run hospitals; a certain bureaucratic opacity on the government side. And there's stuff that's not covered (such as optical or dental). But if you've got your health card that's pretty much that.
