Waiting 6 months or more for an MRI? Completely possible in a big city like Toronto, where she is.
(Toronto could use more hospitals)

However, there are different types of MRI's and and the waiting list may not be as bad depending on the procedure or location etc.

Long waits suck and our system is not perfect but it is available to everyone, also, in an emergency they would accommodate someone and not make them wait months., like in the ER where the highest priority cases are seen first.

You might die before you get an MRI in Canada but you could also die before getting one in the USA if its unaffordable for that person.

Also, MRI tests are not 100% of the services offered by the medical profession in Canada and not a great way to measure overall efficiency.

Also, people love to complain.

"How fucked is Canadian healthcare?" Its not, but its great fodder for those looking to attack.

I can get a dr appointment within days, same day if its an emergency, blood tests are done regularly and results in a couple days from the lab etc. Colonoscopy wait times are a month or so. etc etc etc

Overall its not terrible, not even close.
