It's a teddit link so it's not contributing to reddit etc.

It getting harder to get timely appointment from recent years development in BC. It went from be able to book family doc in the same week to now about 1 month to 4 months away depending on how popular your doctor is. So with specialist it's gonna get harder.

The pandemic is only the largest blow to a system in need of shoring up already.

We should definitely expect issues and delays over and above the norm for years. Improving our system will help, but a global lethal pandemic and the impact on our healthcare system - even if we didn't have angry indolents not doing the barest of minimal work to limit the effects - needs to be accounted for.
