Yeah, cus, Europeans and Americans are equal in all regards, especially lifestyle and economy, except who pays the final bill at the hospital.

I would say the answer to that is "Hope and well wishes". Maybe it will work out. Then again, we can go hunting for flying pigs.
Just keep saying universal. Give it a silky, robotic, woman voice. Maybe a little chime or swoosh sound effect following it. Also, this woman has big breasts and blond hair.

There was a guy here for a safety course a little while back from Canada, and they wouldn't let him pay for the medical procedure he wanted, and that's standard practice. That's enough right there. If you want to pay for something, but can't, I'm done. I like commerce.

Unless there's been some serious geographical changes that I don't know about, Canadians are still Americans.

After that, they have to be in immunosuppressive drugs. IOW, it isn't plug and play. Everything over there is quite a bit different from here. Monkey see, monkey do isn't that simple.

Lifestyle is a HUGE issue as is diet.
