It has been reported as a result of various studies and surveys that more than two - thirds of the citizens of Canada actually live quite close to a hospital that is specialized to provide its patients with the best treatment for heart attack. It is quite an interesting fact to not that most people who have crossed the magical age barrier of 40 live somewhere that could get to the hospital, which has the essentials to open a blood vessel in the heart that is blocked, in under an hour.

The differences were basically based on the region that they lived and while about 70 per cent of the population in Ontario could reach the hospital in the given time, only about 0 per cent of the occupants of New Brunswick could manage it in that time.

It is a distressing fact to many that a few areas that include the Prince Edward Island don't even have a facility that can perform the procedure. But there are not arguments for more facilities as the bigger hospitals do a better job than the smaller ones and they do so quite frequently and the only thing necessary was more care to the health of people in the country.
