Couldn’t agree more w these thoughts.
I’m guessing excluding them from this taxation would be cheaper than contributing to a pension/retirement plan in some fashion.
The narrative that FM specialists are in Canada’s top 0.1% wealthiest just isn’t true.

@AlikaMD@CMA_Docs I appreciate your advocacy. As I don't make enough to incorporate, capital gains doesn't affect me one way or another. It does seem unfair that incorporation was advertised as a way to mitigate the lack of fee⬆️, only to have capital gains taxed more... I agree with @DrCXL
For myself, I’m mostly wondering at the lack of a windfall tax on #fossilfuel companies in a year of massive profits + huge public expenditures to combat #climatechange-amplified #wildfires.
That said, I appreciate this expression of solidarity with hard-working family docs ☺️🙏

In 2017, @CMA_Docs spent a lot of advocacy capital talking about the risk to physician practices with elimination of income splitting.
It is now very clear that practicing as a family physician is not sustainable.
Other reasons include,
- historically low pay of family…
Suggested tweak, give an exclusion to family physicians for the capital gains tax. Maybe also include other folks that provide a majority of their clinical practice in primary care like nurse practitioners, among others.
Incentivize the care Canadians need.

Minister @rechievaldez, you're mistaken. This is not something Canada can recruit our way out of.
@OntariosDoctors are facing financial strain, worsened by proposed tax changes. This could threaten physician practices and patient access.

Lots of talk that primary care is important, but very inconsistent pan-Canadian action at the PT level. The issue of pay and paperwork are issues brought up over and over again throughout the last 10 years.
Change is an action word.
Very concerned about this trend.

Keep in mind that this is an op-ed by @ThomasMulcair
Thoughtful.
Despite…claims that the massive 33 per cent increase in capital gains tax inclusion will only hit "those at the very top," it soon became clear to all observers that that simply wasn’t true.…

A good explanation of a problem must do two things.
- it shows where the problem exists
- it shows where the problem does NOT exist, or (in the case of universal problems) whether the problem needs to be solved right now
Most persistent problems have bad explanations.
I really do believe this will be a critical turning point for Family Medicine in Alberta…
The new funding model will allow our FM docs to be paid competitively, and will incentivize longitudinal comprehensive primary care in our province!

Going to amplify this for all my MD colleagues out there.
Some good moves in healthcare in #Budget2024 .
And while many MDs make a good living, for those incorporated MDs who don't (looking at family physicians in particular) there's some pretty bad news in this years budget…

Attending this event today. It’s such a critical issue & from a @CMA_Docs perspective our physicians experience way too much abuse online when they do the important work of sharing trusted information #wedeservebetter
