i need to add the obligatory remark here: "that will buff right out"

phew...
In all honesty though, how do the different demographics behave when they call? black/brown/asian/white/whatever? BTW, have you had encounters with Russians, how was that?
I've been in ambulance once in '04 after my bike accident and i kept asking the guy if i will be able to walk, he kept saying he doesn't know and i kept yelling at him to kill me before going to the hospital if i will be crippled.  I was ridiculous.

Based on my wife's experiences at work at Brampton Civic Hospital, I would definitely concur on the actions of brown people. Apparently, the ER service is so terrible at that particular hospital because they will come in for anything at all. Paining in the left foot - heart attack. A little bloated from the 3-day wedding meals - heart attack. Daughter didn't get into university and is dating a non-Hindu - heart attack.
Also, they get TONS of patients who had been waiting for and just received their health card and then have a laundry list of issues that need to be dealt with all at once.
Best of all - they bring the grandparents over, wait for their health card to come in, drop them off at the hospital, and when they are finally ready to be discharged, the children don't pick them up. They dispute the diagnosis and say they need more help, rehab, treatment, surgery (hell, it's all free anyways) and LITERALLY leave them there at the hospital. They don't take them home. In some cases, I've heard it's because there's no room at home for them to come and live. It's like a publicly funded hotel at that point.
While it may seem like I'm only picking on the brown people, it's simply the experiences that my wife has told me about working in that particular area. Can't help it if it's Bramladesh.
Chinese just pretend they can't understand you - even when someone comes in who can speak Cantonese or Mandarin. Wrong dialect of course.

I think a big difference is with old gen fobs vs. new gen fobs. Old gen fobs are more "canadian-ized" and less likely to abuse the systems for which their taxes have paid into over the last 20+ years. Whereas new gen fobs are more likely to game the system (not all of them, just seems that way).

^exact same shit when they come into the ER. they manage to somehow get their ass there, drive, drop off, etc etc, walk from the parking lot on the other end of the hospital, walk thru the door, then all of a sudden, they can't walk, they are totaly helpless.
i can say (even being brown myself, well more like a coconut) that brown ppl and chineese ppl are the most impatient people to ever deal with. i can tell a white guy who has severe abdominal pain, or chest pain (with a ecg that checks out ofcourse) to sit in the waiting area, and they will sit and be patient.
with brown or chineese ppl, they come in with a fucking headache or some BS, and every 5mins they are in your face again asking how much longer it will take.
i have to give the award for going into the ER for BS to chineese ppl tho. they come in for the absoulte dumbest reasons possible. a mosquito bite. a cat scratch.
i think the kicker was when this china lady brought her toddler in,says he has a fever (which he did not), bundled the kid up in like 4 layers of thick clothes, when we asked if she gave the kid tylenol, she said "no, only chineese antibiotics"

They need to go undercover and make a huge fucking television special about this bullshit. People wonder why they can't get into a fucking emergency room? Perfect examples in this thread.

No need. Just as user fees. $200 per ER visit. The skunks will GTFO to the walk in clinic instantly.

wow, just wow i can't imagine how someone must live with that decision. I am honestly speechless, fawk.
My gf's cousin gave birth on thursday, kid was ok, brought him home and he started changing colours and his mouth was dry, rushed him to a hospital in the west end and managed to get it under control. Doc's said had they waited a day he would've died. 
Something to do with the mother's milk not being compatible with the kid so they didn't know wtf was going on.

Jesus christ man, that's brutal. I couldn't do that job, I'd end up punching the bullshitters and crying about the innocents.
You definitely get a thumbs up from me.

So the poor people with a real medical emergency won't get any treatement? Not exactly what our universal health care system was made for.
I would suggest billing the fakers instead. Once it's proven it wasn't an emergency, like the mosquito bite, the patient gets billed $200 for wasting taxpayers dollars.
They don't pay? Instant collections agency and/or cancellation of their health card.

Isn't that one symptom of brain cancer?

Curious as to what his nationality was (Russian/Romanian)?
