On our fifth day in São Paulo, we started by visiting São Paulo hospital to learn about the Brazilian healthcare system. It is actually quite similar to the Canadian system although there is a private sector and a public sector in Brazil. We learned that our two systems face very similar challenges but have similar strengths.
In the afternoon, we toured Parque Ibirapuera, one of the largest parks in Brazil. Our Brazilian friends gave us a tour and taught us about the history of the park and the São Paulo Revolution. Four of the revolutionaries are buried in the centre of the park below the obelisk.
For dinner, we went to a place owned by the Canadian Trade Commissioner to Brazil. Another excellent day!
