What is the problem here? Are the UCP running out of our money after losing billions of taxpayers’ dollars to extremely poor decisions?
© Provided by Edmonton Journal A nurse speaks with a patient at the University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton. The Alberta government is proposing a three per cent rollback on salaries for nurses in the province.
What Kenney and the UCP are doing is immoral. Work the nurses (and doctors) until they drop and then reduce their salaries. Thousands of nurses in Alberta have been bending over backwards while working in COVID conditions which are understaffed while caring for thousands of very ill people .
What a slap in the face. Can anyone imagine Kenney or any of the UCP MLAs working under the conditions that the nurses (and doctors) have for the past 16-plus months? Heavens no. They might miss one of their Sky Palace dinners.
Instead of going after public professions that are mostly staffed by women, imagine that the UCP actually started spending our money wisely for the betterment of people’s lives. What an oxymoron. This is just further proof that the sadistic UCP’s intentions are to privatize as many public services as possible, further dividing society.
Their moral compass has always been rapidly spinning backwards straight to purgatory.

Albertas’ high nursing salaries bring benefits
Why does the UCP government not want the nurses in Alberta to be the highest paid in Canada? Being the highest paid has advantages — we can attract more nurses to our province; and nurses here have more disposable income, which is a positive for businesses in the province.
This is something the provincial government should be proud of. Health care is important to Albertans, but the UCP government does not seem to realize this, e.g. the treatment of physicians and the shortage of family physicians in Alberta.
