3 months to see a specialist and then another 3 months to perform the surgery if he/she is busy. Sure there are some extreme cases in heavily populated areas but the bi problem is nurses and doctors but mostly nurses are heading down to the States after training to make better money. There is a shortage of healthcare pro's. Thakfully some that can afford to hit private clinics do so at the present but many Canadians don't like that because you can afford it, you get prefferencial treatment being able to head off to the private clinic. Health care sholuld be on a first come first served basis since everyone is equal and money does not make you more equal than someone with less money.
