Yeah Canada is a beautiful place. Our summers are so short so people really get out and enjoy the landscape.
Free healthcare is great, every visit is covered whether for a checkup or major surgery.
Sometimes we do have to wait for care, like I had to for my pdoc - I waited 6 months for a referral to my pdoc. Then I had to wait another year for a referral to a therapist.
But when it's medically necessary the system works really quickly like it did for my emergency surgery last summer.
