That's my point. You will wait if it's not an emergency. My dad got really ill on xmas day and his blood pressure was dangerously low. We called 911 and they were there within mins and took him to a local hospital and he was admitted and cared for. I really could care less what others from other countries think about canadian healthcare. I have had nothing but positive experiences. Yes we pay for our healthcare through taxes but we still pay less than we would to private insurance companies.
