I think they mean waiting for surgeries or getting an appointment with a specialist, either of which can take months depending on who and why you're trying to see. My friend's mother waited six months for her hip replacement, and my aunt will wait most of a year for her double knee replacement.
Canadians are less inclined to sue, and I think judges are less inclined to find malpractice, so there are fewer malpractice insurance costs in Canada.
