In the Health section of cbc.ca, there is a discussion on "Easing the doctor
shortage." Here's the introductory text:

"The number of doctors per capita in Canada will decline by 2015 without
more foreign-trained doctors, but increasing the number of spots for
qualified Canadian students is a better solution, the Fraser Institute
concludes in a report Monday.

"Provincial governments have reduced medical school enrolments and
post-graduate training programs since 1993.

"To solve the physician shortage problem, qualified Canadian students need
to be able to get the education and training they need, concluded the
report, titled Canada's Physician Shortage: Effects, Projections and Solutions.

"What should be done to increase the numbers of qualified doctors working in
Canada?"

Most commentators have bought into that framing of the health issue. I added
a comment and invite other list subscribers to do the same.
