This is exactly what we're seeing. We're seeing many people dream about being a midwife who may not have dreamt of it before. We had a real intention in having these mandated populations and creating midwives for these communities.
Many of the news stories over the last couple of weeks since the school was closed have featured some of our Black midwifery students working in Ottawa, francophone students and indigenous students who are coming forward and fighting hard for this program. This was a dream that they dreamt and are realizing, and they see the need to serve their own communities. It is a beautiful, growing thing that was taking shape here, and it feels really that it has been cut off at the knees.
