I have a question for Ms. Silas. She pointed out the labour shortages in the health care field. I suppose we can extrapolate that there would be the same labour shortages in the child care field, the elder care field, and in all the caring professions, so to speak, and a lot of need for foreign workers.
The concern I wanted to pinpoint was the one you raised about the absolute shortage of doctors and nurses, and the fact that we need to increase the number being trained. I think you're aware that there has been an increase in the admissions to training programs for doctors and nurses in Canada. I wondered whether you think these new entry numbers are sufficient—you probably have that data, and I think it would be helpful for us to know—or whether we need to try to expand the programs even more. They were cut back substantially some years ago—foolishly, as it turned out, but here we are today.
In your recommendation, where do we go in supporting training for doctors and nurses in Canada?
