Trish, I'm so sorry about the MS diagnosis! I don't have any words of advice, but am sending good thoughts and prayers your way.
Does Canada have an MS Society that you can go to as a resource or advocate as you navigate the complexities of the Canadian medical system? If it helps just to talk to people who are dealing with the disease, I could put you in contact with a friend of mine with MS, who is active in funraising for a cure here in Tucson. I also had an uncle (now deceased) with severely debilitating MS that started in his early 20s, and I could get info from my aunt as to what worked for them in their long fight getting the appropriate help from the VA, which is probably as bureaucratically nightmarish as your system...
