Government can throw funds at the health care system, but until the policy to obtain a physician is changed, folks will be unable to even apply to have one at all, says writer

SooToday received the following letter from Carrie Van Staveren about obtaining a family physician in Sault Ste. Marie.We have a physician in our former home area, which is over 700 km away, but we are unable to sign on with a physician in this area.
