Comments Organization of content is challenging to follow. It would be easier if you had organized by the prompts given for the assignment, then divided the descriptions by the country. See the attachment for my revisions. As I read, a lot of the content is not clear but blended together and is difficult to tell if you are talking about the United States or Canada. It would help if you had referred to the document from the Commonwealth Fund for the assignment, then used your references to supplement.	10 / 13 pts
