Dr. Lean-Couture is a family doctor

and head of the Association of General Practitioners for Quebec's Laurentians region. She says the government's attempt to improve Quebecers' access to family doctors will only make things worse. It's not just by pushing more patients to all the physicians that is going to work.

In a video message earlier this week, Premier Francois Lago said we're not doing this against the doctors, we're doing it for Quebecers. The province says the bill is an exceptional measure to ensure better access to care and protect patients. Alison Northcote, CBC News, Montreal. And that is your world this hour.
