Canadian doctors, including the Canadian Medical Association, are expressing concerns over the proposed changes to capital gains tax by the Liberal government. They warn that the tax hike could lead to doctors quitting, affecting their retirement savings and jeopardizing physician recruitment and retention in Canada. Prime Minister Trudeau defends the plan, stating it is about 'intergenerational fairness' and asking the most successful in the country to contribute more. The government acknowledges the potential departure of family doctors due to the tax increase and plans to rely on foreign-trained doctors if needed.
