History of specialty residency funding in Canada.
Specialty residency training in Canada has evolved from its origin in teaching hospitals through an era dominated by universities to the present when public accountability is emerging as a dominant influence. The predominant educational strategies, including experimental learning, role modelling, continuum of training, independent thinking, self-directed learning and research experiences, have been influenced by the diversity of roles expected of the resident, including that of an employee, a student, a teacher and, more recently, a part of the policy instrument of governments in controlling physician resources.
