Thank you. That information is useful.
Ms. Fréchette, I want to go back to what seems to be the key issue for you and for Mr. Sutherland. There is no acute shortage of resources, but their distribution is uneven. For instance, there may be too many cardiologists in Winnipeg, and not enough of them in Quebec City. How can we have enough flexibility at all stages of the process? When people are referred to specialized schools, does a certain degree of flexibility exist that helps quickly decide to train fewer people in one discipline and more people in another? In Canada, are there any statistical tools that enable your organization to adjust promptly?
Can you consult your members quickly and tell them that, for instance, there will soon be a shortage of cardiologists in Quebec City, but not in Winnipeg? Are improvements needed when it comes to that? Is there enough flexibility among the provinces so that people can move, if they wish, so that a better balance can be achieved between the regional needs on the ground and the available resources? We have understood that this is where the source of the problem is, but how can that flexibility be achieved?
