In the last four days, both main parties have promised a new Urgent and Primary Care Centre for Greater Victoria. I welcome that. We need the capacity. But let's be honest about what a new clinic fixes and what it doesn't. A clinic is a building. The shortage is people, and the people we have are buried in forms. The latest national survey of 1,924 doctors, by the Canadian Medical Association and the CFIB, found the average physician spends 9.1 hours a week on paperwork. Doctors say 46% of that work doesn't need a doctor at all. In BC, 90% call it a major cause of burnout. That's almost a full working day every week not spent with patients. Nationally, the unnecessary part adds up to the equivalent of about 9,000 full-time doctors, or 199 hours per doctor every year. A ribbon cutting won't fix that. Going through the forms one by one, such as insurance paperwork, referrals and test requisitions, and removing what adds nothing will. My commitment is simple and measurable: cut BC doctors' paperwork by 10% within two years, measured by what BC doctors report in that same national survey. If the number doesn't move, you'll know, and you can hold me to it. Advance voting ends Wednesday at 8 pm. Election Day is Saturday, October 24.
