I'm not really sure what you're trying to say here. I don't really think there's any real reason to think that 1/3 of Canada wants the American system. That's certainly never something I've seen any evidence for. My impression was always that it was a point of general pride that the Canadian system "wasn't' like the American's". Only a small fringe want otherwise from what I can tell. It's not even in the platform of any small fringe parties as far as I can tell. I would suspect if a niche issue like Albertan separatism finds political expression, this would too.
Could you be conflating talks about "privatization" (allowing private clinics to exist and take OHIP) with private healthcare payments (you don't get OHIP) by mistake? Those two are not really the same at all, but get conflated in the media often.
That last part there about Ottawa or Ontario, not sure which one, doesn't really make much sense, sorry. It's unclear what you're getting at. Nothing there really sounds related to what I'm talking about.
