And maybe it's not. One of the problems with discussing health care in Canada is that each province does it's own thing and consequently general criticisms are misleading. In Ontario several different hospitals , usually affiliated with a University specialize. If I had kidney problem ,I think it is University Hospital in London , if I had a heart problem I'd go here,

In British Columbia, the wait to see a doctor is so long that many, who can afford it, come to the US. I knew a boy who was made to wait six months for knee surgery and missed his whole senior basketball season. I have heard of people who were told that they have terminal cancer having to wait six months to see an oncologist. Perhaps Ontario has better health services, it's not unusual to see Leftist elites taking care of themselves first. It happens in the US all the time.
