The Quebec government, after having taken the decisions that were necessary to increase admissions to medicine in 2022, is now undermining its own efforts to attract more young people to medicine to Quebec by adopting these new constraints on practice.

There will be at least 943 new resident doctors in Quebec next July, compared to 894 last year. Of this number, more than half have chosen family medicine…

This is what the FMRQ went to argue in parliamentary committee on February 6, 2025 as part of the bill which aims to promote the practice of medicine within the public health and social services network.

We are concerned about the new constraints that the Quebec government is proposing to impose on doctors at the start of their practice.

“As resident doctors, we make diagnoses, prescribe treatment, conduct examinations, and perform surgery”, explains the president of the FMRQ…

On compte une augmentation de 17 étudiant·e·s en médecine qui ont choisi la médecine familiale par rapport à l’an dernier, une hausse de 4 %.

This is what the FMRQ has expressed, among other issues, at the April 19, 2023, Parliamentary Commission on Bill 15.
