ER doctors say this season is the worst they’ve ever seen, and are now calling for real action to fix the crisis plaguing Canada’s healthcare system.

Kelowna isn’t what I’d consider a small place! Over 200,000 people makes it around the same population as Oshawa (just under 200,000), and wait times right now are 1h 4min.
Historically, smaller hospitals have shorter wait times.
I’m not doubting you at all, since it’s been reported quite a few times that ER wait times around the country have been extremely long. I’m simply not seeing where these hospitals are.
If it’s only a handful in very specific areas, then I don’t see why this can’t be fixed easily. Even in Ontario, where the Ford Government withheld millions in healthcare funding, we don’t seem that bad for wait times, but I’m always for providing more support for frontline workers.
