So Doug Ford's big announcement in the G&M: "Ontario to reserve majority of medical school spots for students from the province"
How many of Ontario's 3,732 medical students are currently from out of province, you ask?
11. Eleven. OK then. #onpoli
We did a worse version of this in BC in the 90s. We let foreign students in to go to BC medical schools but they then weren't allowed to stay & practice in BC afterwards.
Hence our current shortage of doctors.
