Young noted the city of Langford has had a continuous dialogue over the past four years, offering tax incentives and thinking of ways to attract doctors to the West Shore as 30,000 people are without a family doctor. A shortage, he noted, that has been going on for 30 years.

His hope is that the announcement will include the province bringing 27 doctors to the West Shore within the next year or two.
Young said the City had to raise taxes this year to pay for MSP for staff. He added if people are paying for health care they want it to be accessible. B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 not free and that rhetoric has to stop.B次元官网网址�
