Morbidity data may be more difficult to come by but CIHI has reports on health indicators which must include morbidity. Maybe try phoning them and asking how you would get that information. I suspect that information at the U of T level would not be forthcoming because the numbers would be so small that even aggregated data would not be anonymous. Kate,
