Feds say less meds OTTAWA (CUP) - First-year enrolment in medical schools across Canada should becutby20 per cent next fall, a new federal provincial report says. The report, obtained by the Globe and Mail last week, says the supply of doctors in Canada doubled between 1961 and 1980, while the population increased by only 33 per cent. More than 300 doctors who are not needed enter the medical system each year, and if nothing is done, there will be a surplus of 6000 doctors by the year 2000, according to the two year study. The report also recommends reducing post-graduate training in general practice and medical specialties, lowering the oumber of foreign medical school graduates accepted and the number of doctors practicing in Canada with work visas, and ensuring doctors practice only where they are needed. Dr. Jean Dupong, the director of health manpower at Health and Welfare Canada, who worked on the study, said it had " been presented to the provinces in November and they have to Dalhousie professor Toni Laidlaw and science student Nancy Cameron link 1 s - Don't Need Radar" and decide what to do with it." arms in the International Women's Day march held Saturday, March 9.
