"Canadian people are very, very nice people, they're not impatient like Americans."
I literally LOL'd.
The American lobbyist certainly is eloquent in conveying her point.

40k canadians traveling to the US for medical imaging?  is this based on old data? since imaging clinics are readily available locally for a fee which sounds cheaper than the US (think she said $1000 in the us + flight)

If I remember correctly, there was a mobile service in northern Washington state that cost like $600. He went across, got the scans and paperwork all within 3-4 hours and came back up to Canada.
I don't know if there was a long wait for the same thing in Canada.

The more I see of Sen. Sanders, the more I like him. We need more guys like him in the Canadian Parliament. Who wants to sponsor his citizenship?  | |

It depends alot on the Severity of the Case, my Step-Father had a possible diagnosis of late stage cancer, and they got him in for a CT scan and MRI within approx 1 week. but for me, i had a diagnosis of a mild stomach irritation a couple years back, and they told me approx 1 to 2 months for the Barium Xray and CT Scan. i could live with waiting, My Step-Father, not so much.
