As Dr. Ellis has pointed out, there were 99 unfulfilled family doctor residency programs. Perhaps the obstacle isn't so much the residency programs, but the problem is with the licensure. Certainly, the Medical Council of Canada sets up national licensing exams, the LMCCs.
Is some of that money going to go toward helping to perhaps provide education for foreign graduates who want to study and spend some time in order to upgrade their knowledge and skills, so that they can pass the LMCC exams?
