It really can’t be said any better than that. ;)

The sign-in nurse told us that we would be waiting between 4 and 5 hours to see the triage nurse- and would then be told how long our wait would be to actually see a doctor.

I drove 2 hours to a larger city with a teaching hospital. We were seen immediately, the doctor was horrified that my child hadn’t even been given pain killers, and after we were treated and given several prescriptions, we went back home. We’d been gone 4 1/2 hours, so I stopped in at the local ER to take our name off the list- and was told that so many more emergencies had come in that we couldn’t be triaged for at least another 2 hours. Welcome to the real face of Canadian health care. Not everyone can be Michale Moore’s inlaws and live in the largest city in Canada. The rest of us have to deal with doctor shortages, bed shortages and ER shortages. Michael Moore is a pompous lying ass.
