My experience (and I have lived/worked in all three countries, although primarily USA and Canada) is that you wait either way. In the USA my co-workers wait for our insurance company to gather facts then (maybe) approve. In Canada you (sometimes) wait for access.
I have experienced very little waiting in Canada. Doctors are same day if you're actually sick, MRI's are inconvenient times, but typically not more than two weeks, and surgery (when urgent) is immediate.
Very little difference from my perspective. And the Canadians can always pay (either in Canada or the USA).
