Since returning from a lovely, long time in Spain (along the east coast)I am now seriously thinking of moving to Spain.
I have so many questions but what do you Canadians do for Health Care? Bess

I believe they buy private care, but there are some allowance for illegals to use the public system. I am not sure that expats count.
