I dunno, last time I was at emergency was when my wife miscarried. In the waiting room, not one native. this was at the foothills. There was one homeless dude...he was white. A bunch of elderly people. Some white 20ish guys came in because of a fight. One dude that was in the bed next to my wifes, and he was completely wasted. About 16...and white. AH, and the crazy lady...she was entertaining to listen to as she rambled on about her cats. She was white. We were only there for 20 hours, so I can't judge about the rest of the days and the year. It must've been a freak night because there weren't any natives. Maybe they had a pow-wow, or maybe they were at the Peter Lougheed. hmmm.
I did go to Canmore emergency once, and we were in and out of there in a couple of hours. Mostly young white people with broken limbs. There was a native family there. Their 10 year old son was pretty sick...couldn't have been the flu though, must've been on something. <sarcasm>
