However after she was admitted, diagnosis and treatment was fast and free. Even the operation and X-rays etc, were all free for her.

The only problem with it is that doctors and nurses are underpaid for the work they do, and, it would be nice to see shorter wait times. Other than that, can't really complain.
You are ridiculous - Canadian nurses by the thousands make $100,000 a year - probably the fastest career path to a six figure income in Canada - 4 years post high school education.

As for doctors, $250,000-500,000 is hardly 'underpaid'. The doctors who work in ER are mostly interns and residents, they make less because that's how it is for medical students and doctors in training everywhere.
