The first segment occurs from referral by a general practitioner to consultation with a specialist. The waiting time in this segment is 8.5 weeks this year, roughly the same as in 2014. This wait time is 130% longer than in 1993, when it was 3.7 weeks. The shortest waits for specialist consultations are in Saskatchewan (6.7 weeks) while the longest occur in Prince Edward Island (28.3 weeks).
The second segment occurs from the consultation with a specialist to the point at which the patient receives treatment. The waiting time in this segment is roughly the same as last year, 9.8 weeks. This wait time is 76% longer than in 1993 when it was 5.6 weeks, and almost three weeks longer than what physicians consider to be clinically “reasonable”. The shortest specialist-to-treatment waits are found in Saskatchewan (6.9 weeks), while the longest are in Newfoundland & Labrador (20.5 weeks).

Тем ни менее, Канада в мире занимает 10-е место по продолжительности жизни и здоровью, а США занимает 36-е! Между Кубой (35-е) и Эстонией (37-е). А воюющий и терроризируемый Израиль с большим количеством беженцев из совка умудряется быть на 5-м месте, наверное, стоило бы у них поучиться.

Вообще, из развитых стран, тех, кого раньше относили к первому миру, мы занимаем ПОСЛЕДНЕЕ место по продолжительности жизни. И ещё хуже это выглядит, если учитывается продолжительность жизни в здоровом состоянии. А денег на медицину мы зато тратим больше всех. :(

Не стоит прятать голову в песок: "while midlife mortality rates continue to fall among all education classes in most of the rich world, middle-aged non-Hispanic whites in the U.S. with a high school diploma or less have experienced INCREASING midlife mortality since the late 1990s... mortality rates of whites with no more than a high school degree... grew to be 30 percent higher than blacks by 2015."
