  • Title: What are the facts concerning the number of residency positions in Canada?
    Author: Dauphinee D, Thurber D.
    Journal: CMAJ; 1997 Mar 01; 156(5):665-7. PubMed ID: 9068573.
    Abstract:
    Some physicians think the current squeeze facing postgraduate medical education was caused by cuts in the number of residency positions. The authors consulted the Canadian Post-MD Education Registry database to determine the actual state of postgraduate training opportunities and to correct erroneous views that may be affecting the debate over training positions. The danger, they say, is that misinformation may lead to inappropriate strategies for dealing with current challenges.
