Hey hospitals, how long do we have to wait?
Long wait times can cause undue pain and suffering. We take a hard look at why Canadians can't get the surgery they need. Follow along as a teenage boy waits nearly two years to get his back fixed, his condition becoming more severe with each month he waits. It's a crisis that has some doctors pushing for private care, while others urge Canadians to keep their faith in the public system. We investigate possible solutions. Guest interview: Travis Dhanraj: TV co-host of CBC Marketplace
