Canada’s Health-Care System Is Collapsing
A woman abandoned by the system schedules MAID after failing to access treatment, while new data reveal Canada’s wait-times worsening across the country.
In the latest episode of Not ‘Sorry’ on Juno News, host Alexander Brown blows the whistle on a system in crisis, and highlights the record wait-times and unconscionable failures that lead to the Canadian government offering assisted suicide for the holidays in place of timely care.
In a stunning story, a Saskatchewan woman named Jolene Van Alstine has been abandoned to bureaucratic hell, and forced the schedule MAID in place of being given the surgery she needs.
American commentator Glenn Beck has offered to pay for that surgery, after she sought assisted suicide because she could not find a surgeon to treat her rare but treatable illness within her provincial health-care system.

In response to a CBC report detailing the case of Jolene Van Alstine, who suffers from normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism, Beck blasted the Canadian euthanasia program on X and on his show, offering to pay for the surgery.
And as this story develops, he’s even working with the U.S. State Department to ensure she can receive this life-saving care before her government suicide scheduled on January 7th.
The tyranny of Canada’s healthcare status quo must end. Every policymaker and bureaucrat involved in this mess should be ashamed. In a new report from the Fraser Institute, titled ‘Waiting Your Turn: Wait Times for Health Care in Canada’, our healthcare wait-times on referral have hit their second-worst ever, at an astonishing 28.6 weeks. That shouldn’t be acceptable.
Joining Brown to break down this astonishing failure and the Van Alstine case is Nadeem Esmail, Director of Health Policy at the Fraser Institute, who helped co-author this study.
Tune-in for an unapologetic diagnosis for all that ails Canada’s failed socialist healthcare model. It’s time to force urgent change.
Collapsing? It’s already gone… you see a doctor here in Canada and your chances of dying are greatly increased…
I was surprised NOT to see any reference to the impact of massive immigration as a factor in our collapsing health care system. As I understand it, and I might be wrong, many immigrants stand first in line for health care, housing, and other basic necessary needs of Canadians, who have lived and worked for the betterment of Canadians. Are we not committing suicide so that newcomers can live?
As a personal example, I contacted my nurse practitioner a month ago about an appointment about a couple of issues I am experiencing. Today I finally got a response from the clinic and was told my appointment would have to wait until January 13th. I will have to find out if it is a life-threatening issue. At least, at 81 years old, I am fortunate enough to have a nurse practitioner, and my heart breaks for those much younger people who will die for lack of care.
