More than 90 percent of Canadians want to see immediate and extensive change within the country’s health-care system and 70 percent are “worried” or “frustrated” by the existing conditions, a new survey suggests.
A recent poll conducted by Nanos Research for the consulting firm Santis Health found that 91 percent of respondents say Canada’s health-care system requires reform. Another 55 percent say the system is not only off track but is heading in the wrong direction, 39 percent expressed feelings of worry about the system’s condition, and 31 percent reported feelings of frustration.
