A growing share of Canadians believe that our growing population is causing longer healthcare wait-times. This is untrue. The number of patients in the ER hasn't changed in 20 years. It just takes us longer to treat each one.
Immigrants are actually our best solution to our extreme healthcare labour shortages. They'd be even more helpful if Canada would let them, yet our habit of dismissing global credentials keeps thousands of qualified immigrants on the sidelines when we need them on the frontlines.
