When I had an opportunity to visit some of the operational stress injury clinics, I was very happy to learn that a lot of work is being put into telemedicine. I was new to that. I was helpfully skeptical at first, but I have heard first-hand from some of the practitioners that telemedicine is a very effective way to be able to video conference on a secure site; in that way, people with certain mental health injuries or issues can get the help they need remotely, and people in some of the more remote or rural areas of the country don't have to travel, as you cited. I think that shows great promise moving forward. It certainly helps spread the wealth of expertise around.
With respect to the medical doctor issue, through the Canadian Forces Health Services, who also report to me, we have the ability to go through a private contractor to bring in medical professionals on an as-required basis.
