Yeah, not really. Our doctors have a maximum salary they can make in a year, its based on number of patients and number and type of procedures. So what you see is quite often doctors will max out before the end of the year and take vacation so as not to provide service for free. My family doctor for example takes a month in the summer and a month around Christmas.

You’ll get the care you need, you just may need to wait for it. The funds are budgeted by the provinces based on number of doctors/hospitals and the like. Most hospitals are running a deficit but the province covers it through deficit spending. Most hospitals cover things like expansion and equipment upgrades through community donation programs.

I can see many issues with that system, but it doesn't matter. Ours is about to get a hell of a lot worse. Thankfully, I'm still young and in good shape. I pity the old folks and the soon-to-be-classified "useless eaters" who'll be given an Obama Pain Pill^TM rather than treatment.
