Thanks.
Dr. Peachey, for my francophone colleague, in June 2010 this committee tabled a report entitled “Promoting Innovative Solutions to Health Human Resources Challenges.” In 2011, 11 years ago, the federal government launched the health human resource strategy to “attract, prepare, deploy and retain highly skilled health care providers to give Canadians access to appropriate, timely, effective care now and in the future.” Seventeen years ago, in 2005, the federal government launched the pan-Canadian health human resource strategy.
Can you give us any insight as to why basically the last 15 years have been unsuccessful in our dealing with the issue of human resources in the health care sector? What advice would you have going forward to avoid the problems?
