A new report released Thursday says that privatization of health care in Ontario won't reduce wait times but may actually increase them.

Yea, the cultural lore surrounding public healthcare in the states is really funny. You can have people waiting months for things with our shitty system who will still say that wait times with public healthcare would be horrible.

Maybe. I guess if I had to choose between a financially debilitating procedure with a long wait time and a free one with a slightly longer wait time, I'd choose the latter.
