I noticed one of your recommendations was for flexible scopes of practice that allow the option to train to an accredited standard beyond the scope of practice. Again, when you're dealing with northern communities, where you have trouble getting people up there and you take a nurse practitioner, that's very good, but if you had a nurse up there, along with a chiropractor who has a broad range of experience to help with those issues.... First nation communities, by and large, are a little bit less oriented towards medications, and they handle them, perhaps, less well than do other populations. Would it be possible to make use of these resources in remote and northern communities where it's hard to get physicians to go?
