No need to look that far.

I live in Quebec and when I tried to get an urgent appointment for the next day ( 24h urgency criteria met ), I had time to do two trips to the ER for urgent care exams and test before the hotline called me back almost 2 days after contact request to set an appointment within 1 to 3 days.

And ER waiting times were surprisingly short this time : about 4 hours total. Average wait is 9 hours in Quebec.

Even if the other ER visit is to see the doctor for tests requested by the previous doctor who told you to come back to the ER, you're back in line.

I got absurdly lucky to stumble-into an abnormally low workload moment.

P.S. : If you want to argue ''at least you got treated for free'', first, taxes, and 40% of the whole budget here is healthcare, then the doctor failed to figure the problem and prescribed drugs that I had to pay practically full-price, either didn't work, or made me sick. Flushing the money down the drain would have been a more positive move.

So now I will have to do tests for the medication-induced sickness hoping they don't fucking kill me this time.
