It's bad. The root cause is that Canadian provinces all decided to short-sheet each other by not paying to educate and train sufficient doctors, for many decades. Socialism run by governments that despise socialism quickly rots. If even a few (conservative-run) provinces decide to short-sheet, the rest tend to feel obliged to follow. Granted, democracies tend to be short-sighted; the furthest horizon is hardly more than one election away.
