Long wait times have become increasingly common in Canada, leading some residents to travel outside of the country to have medical surgeries and procedures done sooner.

Funny as my wife has had to wait months for a specialist and we are in the US. She is lucky that she had a cancer that would kill her in two months that only needed surgery to treat.

Yeah at least Canadians get a vacation. I pay the same as an international trip but when I finally get to be seen it's a worn out business park in the next town over.
