Thank you, Madam Chair.
I certainly apologize for missing the testimony, and I will read Hansard to make sure I get all the information you provided.
This is one of the things I want to start to focus on. My background is in nursing, and when I was a very young nurse I had the privilege of working with a physician who was no longer with the military. He worked in a rural community and actually used a lot of the concepts he had learned. I would say that was one of the few really strong primary health care teams to which I have been witness. In our conversations and in those with previous witnesses, there has been a lot of talk about physician assistants and perhaps opportunities for physician assistants. I wonder if you could talk briefly about their role and their training. It has been mentioned many times.
