Primary care is clearly the front door to the health care system, and as I've stated earlier, we don't know the full impact the pandemic has had with respect to wait times, and so on, but we know that those Canadians who do not have a family doctor are going to have a much harder time navigating the system to deal with issues such as their mental health care. We know that seniors need strong access to primary care.
We've not mentioned it today, but patients with long COVID are going to need primary care. Thus, we need to see a commitment to delivering on that, to expanding the role of primary care teams. Also, we need to start being more innovative and look at how we deliver health care with respect to the social determinants of health and taking in the many issues beautifully outlined by Dr. Bloch around equity in health care.
