Toronto Metropolitan University's new School of Medicine in Brampton opened to train family physicians with cultural and linguistic competency for a diverse population. The school admitted 94 of 6,400 undergraduate applicants and enrolled just over 100 medical residents, with all students Canadian and most from Ontario. The curriculum emphasizes understanding patients' languages, cultures and traditional diets so care and advice are not lost in translation. Brampton is one of Canada's fastest-growing and most diverse cities but is under-resourced for health care. The Ontario College of Family Physicians projects 430,000 people in the Peel region may lack a family doctor by next year.
