Hello Alan!

"treated for anything" is very general.

It's not all that it may seem.  People with life-critical  
surgeries or cancer treaments may have to wait a long time (up  
to 30 wks recently) before anything happens.  Until then, if  
they think all you have to endure is pain, they just prescribe  
pain-killers.

There is a long waiting list for organs.


 AB> Ambulance was $150

Depends on the province, I think.  $55 in Ontario, but ONLY if  
you have a health card number.  Otherwise the trip is around  
$250.
