🇨🇦 Ontario Pulls Residency Policy to Dodge Court, Then Legislates It Anyway

Sylvia Jones just performed a bureaucratic shell game. Last week her ministry rescinded a policy prioritizing Ontarians for medical residency spots while facing a court challenge. This week she's ramming the exact same policy through legislation. The goal? Shield it from judicial review and lock in preference for locals over foreign-trained grads. The spin is heartwarming: helping Ontarians who studied abroad come home. The reality? A admission that Ontario imported so many foreign students and temp residents that even professional training slots are now a zero-sum fight for access.

For years we were told mass immigration solves doctor shortages. Now the same government admits we can't even train the people already here. They broke the system, now they're rationing the wreckage. And the court case conveniently disappears.
