Key Messages This comparative analysis between the spatial accessibility to physiotherapists (PTs) and family physicians (FPs) highlights poorly served municipalities through mapping. A large volume of population age 65 and over, low‐income individuals, recent immigrants, and those of aboriginal status/ethnicity have reduced access to PT services particularly in rural and remote municipalities
