Exactly what I suspected.
The docs don't want to do this, but they have to make themselves profitable.
The current model for family docs is failing, and the government isn't doing enough to ensure it is a stable and funded area of medicine.
This has nothing to do with ideological motives for privatization of healthcare, it is reactionary and intended to cope with the exist anemic model of funding, bill codes, and operational support.
This is all on the current government.

As the article notes, it’s happening across the country. So by current government, do you mean the federal Liberals?
