Thank you very much.
I want to go back to Dr. Bowmer's comments, and Carolyn Bennett also raised this issue about the Canadian health human resource strategy back in 2004. It was part of the accord, and that accord is coming to an end.
It seems to me that very little has been done on that strategy. I'd like to know what has been done, if anything. What can we do to get something done before the end of the accord? I'll pose a rhetorical question: isn't that the basis upon which we should address all of these other issues? If we haven't dealt with that national framework approach when it comes to health human resources, how do we proceed on dealing with the question of foreign credentials, lack of doctors in northern and remote communities, inclusion of the aboriginal community, and so on?
You can go first, and then we'll hear from anyone else on this issue.
