Recent data from a Regina-based think tank shows that roughly one in eight Canadians are currently waiting for healthcare services across the country.

Here in the US there's also a long waiting list for surgeries and specialists. It's called "I don't have enough money to pay for it" and people wait until they have the money. It's too bad that people in both countries have to wait longer than necessary for medical care.
