Anyone with eyes can see adding more than a million people since COVID began without laying the groundwork in terms of residential capacity or healthcare capacity can see the impact. It’s kept wages suppressed, house and rent prices inflated, and family docs MIA.

An odd take considering that a large percentage of family doctors in Canada are immigrants.

I am not sure the relevance of your point. Are you suggesting that we have imported as many family docs as we have non-family docs on a per capita basis to keep the ratios the same? If not, what’s your point?

[bryanlarsen]

I'm saying we have imported far more family docs than needed to keep the ratios the same. That without immigration we'd have an even greater shortage of family docs than we do now.
