Canadian healthcare wait times remain our weakest metrics here. At seems we are doing better here in Ontario. Compared to other developed countries, we are still around the worst. Amongst other countries with universal healthcare, Canada also appears near the bottom as well. fraserinstitute.org/commentary/oth…

@netflix I wondered if this was a Richard Gere surprise? Her laugh was so genuine!

One of the all-time Julia Roberts laughs

@Teslalightshows @elonmusk @Tesla @mayemusk @play_tediddle @enhauto Best Tesla lightshow ever!

Tesla’s NEVERENDING STORY 🔥❤️✨ @elonmusk @tesla

@Teslaconomics @Tesla Easy, switch to Tesla FSD hardware/software on their cars or just use Teslas🤓

@Tesla Woah… how in the world can Waymo and/or Uber catch up?

Over 10 billion miles driven on FSD Supervised tesla.com/fsd/safety

@JoshWest247 @Tesla @Tesla_AI LOL 16 B kms. Yup, that's here 🇨🇦 Why hasn't 1 auto manufacturer chosen to add Tesla FSD to their vehicles?

@Tesla Congratulations @Tesla_AI 10B is massive but 16B is 🤯 😎🤙

@Tesla Awesome! 🍻

@fordnation Congrats Doc!

I spoke to the graduating class at Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan today about the importance of teamwork, relationships and loyalty as they start their careers and make their way in the world. These aren’t just important lessons for graduates - it’s also important for our relationship with the United States as we continue fighting for tariff-free trade between our two great countries, so we can protect workers and jobs on both sides of the border.

@SpaceX 34th for this booster!

Falcon 9’s first stage has landed on Landing Zone 4

Wow! Look at our moon like it’s never been seen before, in colour ❤️❤️❤️

@NorrisWinner @DriveTeslaca Also, one time on a damp, cold highway I had to swerve to avoid a merging car and the rear got pretty squirrelly. Pretty sure it was at least partly because I forgot to switch the car to winter tire mode.

@NorrisWinner @DriveTeslaca I have a Long Range Y in Toronto — front motor barely kicks in, and regen is almost all rear. I still run winter tires every year (and update the car setting). Dual motor just feels feels safer on family trips in snowstorms.

BREAKING: Tesla has updated its Model 3 lineup in Canada 🇨🇦 🇨🇳 Premium RWD starts at just $39,490. 463km range. No EVAP rebate since these are from Giga Shanghai 🇨🇳 First deliveries in May-June. Performance now starts at $74,990.

@Devin_Heroux @cbcsports @AthleticsCanada @KingsleySC @CBCOlympics Amazing! And, Andre De Grasse just coasted to the finish line with his usual swagger…at high speed 😎❤️🇨🇦

CANADA 🇨🇦 FOR THE WIN They’ve done it again. Aaron Brown, Jerome Blake, Brendon Rodney and Andre De Grasse win their heat at World Relays in a time of 37.56. Remarkable consistency. They’ve qualified Canada for the world championships next year in Beijing.

@CBCOlympics Wow 🤩 That was really, really great! I mean relay, relay great! Congrats 🥳 and good luck at worlds.

Canada’s speed kings are back at it 🇨🇦⚡️ Andre De Grasse, Aaron Brown, Brendon Rodney, and Jerome Blake punch their ticket to the 2027 World Championships after a 37.56s run at the World Athletics Relays Next stop, the final!

@JoshWest247 🤔 Hmmm.. my daughter has that kind of superpower. Too bad she lives 2600 miles away from us here in Toronto. Might try the cross country run once our HW3 Model Y gets v14 FSD.

@DouglasJMark A great Wife

Hotel EV Charging is one of the greatest life hacks of road tripping in an EV. This hotel has four 48amp Tesla destination chargers with magic dock. Pulled in with 7% SOC and should be full by the time we leave tomorrow morning. 👍

@mymatrixplug Awesome 🤩 I love the sound of the SPMTs too ❤️❤️❤️

Starship 40 - the second of V3, has left Production and is heading towards Massey’s for its round of cryogenic testing.

Impressive! It’s been a long climb to the top in many aspects, but it’s nice to see the results achieved. I wonder how much Tesla’s top-notch crash test and safety scores factor into this? I don’t think that’s a well-known fact, but I hope people look into these figures because they are outstanding. 👏

Here some fast Grok points as well: Yes, international comparisons consistently show Canada (and thus Ontario, despite being its best province) has longer specialist and elective wait times than most peer high-income countries. Key International Benchmarks Here are highlights from reliable sources like the OECD, Commonwealth Fund, and Fraser Institute analyses (data mostly 2023–2025): Specialist appointments (wait >1 month): • Canada: Often ~61–65% of patients. • Switzerland/Germany/Netherlands: ~23–25%. • US: ~27%. Same/next-day appointment when sick: • Canada: 22% (among the lowest). • Netherlands: 47%; Switzerland/Germany: Higher (low double-digits for delays). Non-emergency surgery (wait ≥2 months): • Canada: Highest reported (~58%). • Germany: Much lower (~1% wait >4 months in some surveys); Switzerland/Australia: Significantly better access. Overall median waits (GP referral to treatment, elective/specialist care): • Canada: 28.6 weeks (2025). • Many European systems with universal coverage (e.g., Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland) report much shorter queues, often weeks rather than months, due to higher resource levels (more doctors/beds/MRIs per capita) and mixed public-private delivery. OECD Insights (2024–2025 data) • Median specialist/surgical waits vary widely: As low as ~67 days in some countries (e.g., Sweden/Spain for certain procedures) vs. over 6 months in others like Poland or Chile. • Canada ranks near the bottom among universal systems for timely access, despite high spending. It has fewer physicians, hospital beds, and scanners than the OECD average. US Comparison (Mixed System) • Much shorter waits: Specialist appointments often 3–6 weeks; ER ~24 minutes (vs. Canada ~1.8–2+ hours average). • Trade-off: Higher costs and insurance barriers for some. Bottom line: Countries like Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, and Australia achieve universal or near-universal coverage with notably shorter waits than Canada, often through more resources, competition, or private options alongside public systems. Canada’s waits are among the longest in the developed world for similar systems. Ontario’s 19.2-week median is strong domestically but still lags many international peers. For the latest OECD Health at a Glance or Commonwealth Fund reports, they’re excellent for visuals and country rankings.

Canadian healthcare wait times remain our weakest metrics here. At seems we are doing better here in Ontario. Compared to other developed countries, we are still around the worst. Amongst other countries with universal healthcare, Canada also appears near the bottom as well. fraserinstitute.org/commentary/oth…
