Carney Urges Canadian Doctors in US to Return Home: A Costly Proposition?
Mark Carney’s Liberal party health-care plan proposes a $4 billion investment in hospital infrastructure and aims to recruit thousands of new physicians, including those working in the U.S., by streamlining credential recognition. Carney directly appealed to Canadian medical professionals in the U.S. to return home, highlighting an improved climate for their return. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to address growing healthcare needs and reverse the trend of closing hospitals and clinics. The plan was announced during a campaign stop in Prince Edward Island, a region where the Liberals currently hold a strong majority of seats.
