Thank you for your work on this. How will 3 a,b,c be enforced? I think it is important to think about this before the standard is passed, rules only as goos as their enforcement. For example, you may consider choosing disciplines for which you are aware there is a clear shortage. Otherwise, people may claim patients can not access, for example, obesity care, and so rather than supporting access to more equitable care in the province the province pays for care provided by people who are not local and do not intend to be with any degree of regularity. This is a nice segway to #6 - which is essential and so a timeline for access may be necessary, with exemptions only for known severe shortages. Lastly, you could consider the importancce of virtual care from an environmental standpoint - as much care as reasonably possible should happen this way to address both equity and sustainability. Travel to appts accounts for a significant portion of healthcare's carbon footprint in AB. This sustainability lens needs to be in the fabric of the CPSA's standards (AI - huge consumer of resources - just reading comment below :)). Thank you
