Which one would be more likely to be called an "emergency?"

Both are an emergency situation and I can assure you the hospitals and physicians here will deem that as emergency as well and deal with them accordingly.
If you like your system better I suggest you keep it and let us keep ours as well.

Then why did the previous Canadian poster have to wait 4 months for an MRI/surgery on his shoulder?
I worked with a Canadian who had a lump on his testicle. Took him 6 months to see a urologist. He never got there; it was testicular cancer (which is very aggressive) and he died waiting.
Have a great day.
