I'm in Ontario and even elective surgery takes less time than that. There is NO way that anyone needing surgery for cancer would be put off this long unless it is a very slow growing form of cancer where there is rationally no urgency. I get so sick of this kind of propaganda when I spend so much time in the US and see FIRSTHAND what a really pathetic health care system is like. My American friends are always envious of the FREE treatment I get and the quality of care that accompanies it. This kind of garbage is what keeps Americans from DEMANDING a decent medical system like we have in the rest of the Western World. <br/><br/>Shame on you for posting such crap.

At least the trend has been to use reputable newspapers lately! Once again, one case is picked out and held up as the norm for the entire system.

Health care is under provincial jurisdiction. Once again, this is an article about Ontario and doesn’t necessarily apply to the rest of Canada. Health care is under provincial jurisdiction.
