Abnormal Pediatric Situation

It makes no sense at all. For all our boasting for what amounts to a mediocre public health system, it is next to impossible to get a pediatrician in Quebec - never mind general practioner. As one doctor, a family member said, "good luck or go to Toronto."

I find this quite repugnant. Alas, I seem to be the only one because we continue to believe our system is a-okay.

So what happens to people who can't find a doctor? They have to wait 10-11 hours in a clinic and get what they can get. Or, if you prefer, bribe a doc. Of course, that's not "right" according to the government who made a mess of things in the first place.

Bah.

At least we have "equal access to all."

People still believe this?
