Emergency rooms across Canada are consistently operating over 100% capacity, leading to unnecessary deaths, with estimates suggesting 8,000 to 15,000 Canadians die each year due to overcrowding. Doctors report tragic cases, such as Stacy Ross, who died after waiting 11 hours in a Winnipeg ER, and Prashant Sreekumar, who died after eight hours in an Edmonton ER. The situation is exacerbated by a lack of available beds and ongoing systemic failures within the healthcare system.
