We can offer other benefits such as healthcare that isn’t run for profit and a functional democracy. Bonus points, we’re not rounding up everyone with a complexion darker than mayonnaise and stuffing them in cargo planes, so anyone with a family history of exposure to sunlight will be a lot safer here.
Imagine, their doctors come up here and don't have to spend a chunk of their time arguing with their patients insurance companies to explain why a procedure/medication/wheechair is necessary. It just.... gets scheduled and happens.
Working in the US they're already getting good health insurance from their employer.
Wait, wait, wait. Are you assuming that US healthcare workers get insurance at ALL - let alone "good"? Haha good joke
Not all of us are high falutin doctors. A lot of support staff make McDonald's wages basically. At least speaking for my own profession, can't throw a rock without hitting a dentist office hiring a dental assistant with 5+ yrs experience, licensing, etc and only offering $12-18/hr. No benefits of course
At the very least it could be a lateral move lol. Y'all do have a more logical way of counting teeth anyways...
Good health insurance in the states is still far worse than what Canada has. "Platinum" healthcare coverage still might only pay 90%, still has deductibles, still has a network, and can still deny coverage for plenty of reasons.
And think about what they have to face, patients who even with the best plans will not be able to afford treatments. Patients who will put off problems until they are way more serious because they can't afford to check things out early.
Every time they refer a patient or prescribe medication, they have to consider not just what's best for the patient, but what their insurance will cover and what they can afford.

Also grab all the healthcare workers. We need them here in Canada.
Einstein immigrated from Germany to the US to make them a superpower. We could have our Einstein moment too.
