Résumé

One consideration is how these increasing fees and resulting debt may be impacting student demographics, particularly with respect to socioeconomic status, as well the types of clinical careers that medical students are pursuing, given the lower average salaries earned by primary caregivers. This second point is concerning given the shortage of primary care physicians in Canada.
