As a Canadian, this is news to me. I just used the free healthcare system a week ago.

I've been on a waitlist for a family doctor for nearly 10 years

That doesnt mean Canada doesnt have a healthcare system, lol. Just because your experience in one part of the country has been bad doesnt mean all of Canada is without healthcare.

Kind of a typical western Canadian perspective. Thinking your province represents the entire country.

Thinking your province represents the entire country.

That's ontario

But yeah we should get more representation - like way more. We foot the bill of the entire nation.

What does this mean? You literally can't see a doctor?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 12 hours ago

I can if I go to the emergency room and wait for 10+ hours.

But yeah here in Victoria the only remaining alternative is walk in clinics, which people are already lined up at 6am for 9am opening
