It’s not that simple, you need to disaggregate it. There is a shortage of family doctors and internists, but there is actually a surplus of specialists. Many new surgeons for example have very tough times finding a job in Canada. There are MANY unfilled residency seats in family medicine every year, likely in-part due to a percieved lack of compensation, prestige, respect, etc. The truth is you can make a ton of money as a family doctor, set your own hours, and set up shop anywhere you want. But everyone wants to specialize and cash in. It’s a complex problem that simply opening up more med school seats won’t solve.
Thanks EY1, wouldn't have known these things had you not shared
Demand > Supply

2800 seats ?? A+ students can't find seats and Canadian doctors wanting to work here can't . What a shit show
"Thousands of medical students are leaving Canada because it’s nearly impossible to get one of the 2,800 first-year seats in the country’s 17 medical schools – where roughly nine out of 10 applicants are rejected"
It’s a Canadian problem, not just an Ontario problem. Same issues permeate Nova Scotia and BC
What's the premise of your line of questioning OP? You seem to be unsatisfied with all responses provided so far. There are tons of articles written in National Post, Globe and Mail, Toronto Star which looks at all the data and numbers extremely closely
Bull pucky. Politicians aren’t competent enough to do that. It is because no one wants to push innovation because everyone brings up the US boogeyman. Check out the OECD healthcare outcomes by country and you can see how far down the list Canada is (and how much lower the US is). Plenty of other countries with lower administration and better health outcomes we should be looking there
The bottleneck is in converting clerkships to residencies. Universities would be happy to double seats in medical school if there was the capacity to absorb it, but alas, no.
Canada is also unduly hesitant to backfill with foreign-trained practitioners, which is something the US has been doing successfully for years.
High barriers to entry
how many of them are going down south ? So, is the issue that the government isn't paying them well ?
High regulation by College of Physicians and Surgeons. It regulates who can practice and where
Yes.
Yes and no. If you need a doctor you can find one, if you’re going to be an ass or a hypochondriac doctors will tell you they’re not taking new patients.
