So to break it down a bit - https://www.fraserinstitute.org/studies/waiting-your-turn-wa...

This says that, Going by referral to consultation (not treatment, that takes another 10 weeks), the shortest waits for specialist consultations are 6.7 weeks in Ontario and longest are in New Brunswick (26.6 weeks)

Including treatment times, the variation is 15.4 weeks to 41.7 weeks.



Just as an FYI, the Fraser institute is one of those organizations where you know the conclusion of their report just by seeing the subject in the title. I would be gobsmacked if I read an article by them that had anything positive to say about Canadian healthcare.
