My father and mother are very ill, and their medicine and health care expenses are through the roof. My father barely gets any disability (he’s a double amputee). I’m trying to help them and was wondering how I could get medical help in Canada for them? Please only serious answers my parents are extremely ill.

    either move to Canada, or i think u can actually go there and make an appointment. u’ll have to look it up, but u don’t have to be a citizen to get the health care.
    u can’t get it here obviously.

    Canadian health care providers are government employees. No one in Canada pays for medical expenses to anyone. Your parents are not citizens of Canada so they cannot get health care in Canada, even if they can pay for it.

    Well you’d need to apply for citizenship or become a naturalized citizen. Either way, they won’t take care of either of the two until their priority’s out shined other patients priorities for care.

    Are they older? if so they could qualify for medicaid. Unfortunately, currently the United States doesn’t help with such matters for most citizens.

    Americans citizens do not qualify for benefits of any kind in Canada. Come on…How would you feel if a Canadian citizen was getting US benefits and using your tax money for their family?

    Canadians can barely get health care there. It is nationalized, so it isn’t going to happen.

    They would have to be permanent residents or citizens of Canada.
