It's a little bit difficult, because although we're talking about federal initiatives, health care is really doled out in a provincial way in Canada. But there are a couple of things. The 2008 election promise to invest in human health resources would certainly improve the working conditions of both male and female physicians within our profession. I would request federal support for initiatives by the Canadian Medical Association or the Federation of Medical Women to improve job flexibility, child care, and other working conditions.
