    We're having this issue in my country. Conservative by design are strangling the public health system. Pushing to bring more private options and make themselves rich off of sick people. The latest is Nurses have been stuck with raises under inflation for over a decade. 3 years ago the conservatives pushed through a bill that capped all public servants to 1% raises each year. For nurses, they are now leaving the system at about double the normal rate. Now hospitals have to close for periods of time because staffing issues. The conservative want to just bring in more international nurses. Meanwhile the powers that be push with the agenda that this is proof the public system is crashing. 

    Discussed this at length during some English classes while I was in Quebec. Some of the (shortsighted) students viewed the situation as proof that the USA system was better. I had to share screen —> Google: leading cause of bankruptcy in USA —> then Google bankruptcy in Americans WITH health insurance to really drive home that it is a much, much worse option.


    Quebec making things worse with their ridiculous language requirements: this year they passed a law that anyone entering the country to work - not seeking citizenship - has 6 months to pass French language tests after arrival. My wife says she wouldn’t have gone there (and others like her will refuse to) if this had been law in 2019. All her work is in English, most science labs are staffed by internationals all conversing in English and far too busy doing 12-14 hour days to have time to become fluent in French within 6 months of relocating to a new country + job.

    They expect experienced nurses to retrain and get Quebec qualifications - as if their standard of education is somehow the pinnacle of medical education.


    All of Quebec’s personnel shortages are of their own xenophobic making. Fucking idiots.
