Can Fam Physician. 1980 Nov;26:1594-9.
A survey of current medical literature suggests the Canadian family physician is facing a difficult and uncertain future, especially by his inability to gain economic parity with the specialists and to have his certification recognized as an academic achievement, not just a mere category of membership. Also, there is the ever increasing encroachment upon traditional general practice roles by paramedical health professionals and medical specialists.The source of many of these contentious issues-threatening not only today's family practitioners but also the future of family medicine in Canada-can be found in the training of family practitioners in Canada.
对当前医学文献的调查表明，加拿大家庭医生正面临着艰难和不确定的未来，尤其是因为他无法在经济上与专家相媲美，也无法将自己的认证视为学术成就，而不仅仅是一种会员资格。此外，越来越多的辅助医疗专业人员和医学专家正在蚕食传统的全科医生角色。这些有争议的问题的根源——不仅威胁着今天的家庭医生，也威胁着加拿大未来的家庭医学——可以在加拿大家庭医生的培训中找到。
