Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll direct my questions first to Mr. Archer and Mr. Lapointe.
In 2003, the Alberta government launched an initiative called the primary care initiative, with the goal of bringing together the primary care service providers operating in individual clinics to better deliver services for primary care by coordinating care with some of the services you've mentioned already today, including dieticians, mental health services, counselling, etc., for patients with complex and chronic conditions, because it was recognized that primary care providers are front-line providers of heath care.
I think, at this point, the primary care initiative, through over 40 primary care networks in Alberta, encompasses over 2,500 primary care practitioners in Alberta. So this is a model in which physicians have come together to deliver services in a coordinated way that doesn't utilize a cooperative model.
Perhaps you could speak to some of the advantages and differentiation that you see between that model—which is working—and the cooperative one.
