    I’m not sure if that’s reason we have people without family doctors in Ontario. According to the latest stats I could find (2019), Ontario has the lowest percentage of residents without a family doctor. Besides a few outliers, basically everywhere in the world has a shortage of doctors so at best you’re drawing down on other jurisdictions. The only other point they make is that many doctors aren’t choosing family medicine, but I don’t feel like we have a glut of specialists?
