This week we examine Ontario's family doctor shortage and the province's promise to connect all Ontarians to primary care within five years.

We talk with Liberal MPP and family doctor Adil Shamji about a leaked report he shared with the media this week and with NDP MPP Jessica Bell about the privatization of care in her riding. We also hear from Trillium reporter Jack Hauen and Health Minister Sylvia Jones. 

You can read more about the issue and explore interactive maps showing where the doctor shortage is most acute and where doctors are nearing retirement age here.
