Abstract
This paper examined how the primary health care model essentially
lacks effective healthcare delivery for rural residents, by articulating unfavorable
trends occurring in the medical arena. Finally, possible solutions that may
bridge the health-status gap of Canadians are outlined. The residents of rural
Canada are dealing with an unnecessary challenge that demands coordinated
effort and change. The concept of “health for all” is the underlying strength in
Canada's healthcare system – reminder of such a fact has never been more
relevant.
