Redpill 55 Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 https://vancouversun.com/news/b-c-election-2020-ndp-pledges-second-medical-school-at-surrey-sfu-campus Looks like BC might be getting a new medical school... Was a bit surprised about this as I thought the plan was to create a distributed site at SFU from the UBC program, like the UVic, UBCO, and UNBC sites. The NDP seem favoured to win so this has a good chance of becoming a reality. Personally I think BC could save a bunch of money by just increasing residencies and poaching trainees from Alberta...

Not familiar with the politics of things, but this is obviously not a real plan. The article doesn't even make sense, how can they open up a medical school that fast? This is clearly a classic example of promising the world, without actually understanding how things work. Political showmanship with zero substance.

bearded frog 471 Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 Good, a new medical school would be terrible without increased residency/clinical infrastructure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
