Answer 1

The decision to offer free tution to canadian medical students was a economic and moral move from the part of the government to reduce the debt from the student part and to keep them financially secure. It provides equal opportunities for the students to study medicine otherwise only those who can afford can study.It also helps in getting the best and brightest student inspite of caste, race and socioeconimic status.The soaring debt and student loan of the medical students makes them demand high fees when they start practising and it makes it difficult for the public to get better treatment and care.

The graduates are getting the freedom to study low paying careers like family medicine and paediatrics rather than high paying careers like cardiology. The physician burn out and suicide are increasing in Canada and US due to depression from this financial pressures. After a decade of practice also they are unable to pay the debt. This system of free tuition makes it clear and solves the problem.
