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.

Brutal! So, from all the comments, it seems like BC is in terrible shape.
It’s not any better in Alberta. :-(
In BC you can “play games” with the medical and go to smaller communities and find a Emergency Care Clinic that serves a smaller community.
Family doctors are impossible to get. There are more than a million people on the waiting lists.
To be fair, the government is making some progress on improving things. They’ve made changes to allow more doctors to be certified. They’ve pumped money into training programs (they pay a full salary and all tuition at university for some certifications). It’s not perfect but it is something.
