My friends are quite happy with the Canadian healthcare system, however you are absolutely right.
That doesn't mean that it works for everyone.
You obviously have more input from unhappy users of the system than I do.
I've been lucky to have good doctors and good specialists; and I've always been able to access surgery in a timely manner.
But this thread isn't about socialized medicine, it's about Dr. Casper.
