just wanna be able to live without worrying about affording a doctor appointment.

If you avoid the flatlander areas, Canada may be for you. We also speak English; just, without the accent. :-P

(unless you live on the island that's an hour's ferry from France)

Speaking a language without an accent is like wearing clothes without a material

Idk I'm from the central US and I had a German foreign exchange student tell me we didn't have a mimicable accent. I know it's not true but it was interesting to hear that from someone who's familiar with everyone around her speaking in a completely different way, even when using English.
