    [ HTML | PDF (1.19 MB) | Help ]
    Hosted by CIHR's Institute of Health Services and Policy Research
    Canadians are proud of their health care system. But long wait times for medical procedures have begun to erode this pride. What's really behind wait times in Canada and will they ever go away?
