Obviously, Mr. Speaker, it is our hope that every Canadian family has a family doctor.
We have been making immense investments in Canada's health care system; in fact, they have reached an historic high. Most notably, I am very pleased to announce that Canada's has the highest number of physicians working than ever before. According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, last year Canada had the most physicians per capita in our history, with over 77,000.
Doctors educated abroad represent over 25% of the doctors who entered the workforce in Canada in 2013. The word is out: Canada is one of the top destinations to practise medicine.
