Been waiting 5 years to see surgeon.
It is a tragedy.
Maybe the surgeon doesn’t want to see you
Ukraine and foreign countries need the 100s of billions. Trudeau puts Canada in serious debt and inflation for it. It is more important than Canadian investment. Don’t you know?
So much for healthcare for all right
Your ER visit is $2000 without OHIP. An example. Soo…
What a shame?! I mean if they can’t deliver then why do they NOT allow private companies to deliver health care so then so those who can afford will go private!!
because of the cost the government should make it easier to get a doctor degree
Travel out of province
It the same everywhere i believe they are trying to privatize it which would be very bad
@Mom Tur i would love the option for privatization. I will pay to see a doctor sooner. That would also clear up a space for those who dont want privitized medical care. Health care should be a combination of both. Give me that option and I will use it.
ok karen, get in line, I waited four years for a rheumatologist, youre not special, its not life threatening. Stop wearing tight jeans that’ll aggravate the condition.
Hey Kevin, no one cares about your crappy opinion. You should be angry, not telling her off. This is unacceptable.
WHY ARE WE PAYING TAXES?! Canada is terrible
Then go live elsewhere. Try the States. I hear they have univer…nevermind.
Where did all our tax money go?! Signs of sheer corruption
Thus just speaks volumes as to why privitized medical care should be an option. I will pay for immediate treatment. It would also clear a spot for public care. I want the option to choose my own medical care.
“The Canadian Health System is great, until you get sick”. Obama
the moral of the story here is never put govt in charge of anything, ever
It’s Atlantic Canada. There’s barely any doctors and specialist physicians there. They’re mostly in larger provinces with big cities. A Derma referral in Ontario is roughly 4-6 month wait. Not years.
