Beimg diagnosed with cancer in Canada is a likely death sentence. Imagine your wife’s GP finds a suspicious breast lump during a routine physical. Under this system the cancer could be in mestases before any definitive cancer treatment is started.
It’s a frequent approach to things to point at Canada’s long waits as the proof that govt healthcare is horrible.
But . . . have a look at Germany and the Netherlands.
Waits far less than those in the US.
