Thank you.
You are frustrated at not having more time, but we would also be frustrated were we unable to ask as many questions as we would like.
A number of witnesses have told us that the 10-year Plan was not really a success. Ms. Ballermann, representing the Canadian Health of Professionals Secretariat—, you say that enforcement of the 10-year Plan is not a success. It has not yielded the desired results with respect to health human resources. Having made that observation with respect to human resources and other aspects of the plan—as a number of you have done—how do you think we should go about developing a long-term plan, for example, in order to have more students studying medicine or various health care technologies? That is where there is a problem. There are waiting lists. We are told that the problem is not necessarily related to money but, rather, to resources.
What long-term advice would you give the government—be it the federal government or another level of government, since we really do not know who has the ultimate authority—as a means of guiding provincial actions in this area?
