Big changes still coming to the provincial

health-care systems.

These poor, exploited, underappreciated (by the public as well as government and employers) will not be content to be paid peanuts or take rollbacks in wages (adding insult to injury as in UCP Alberta).

These workers having to work in positions (emergency) that they did not choose to work in (i.e., different from their original postings).

These workers totally abused and stressed out physically, mentally, and spiritually without a break (often working on their holidays and days off).

Employers and governments are finding it hard to recruit replacements for the workers who have left because of burn-out and being fed up.

Workers are refusing to be vaccinated and employers in homes and hospitals dare not fire or suspend workers because wards and facilities will shut down leaving patients to die in their own filth or to die unoperated on, especially with facilities filling up with ornery, unvaccinated people.

Working in health care right now is to be powerless, underpaid, ignored, and unappreciated. It is slavery and unremitting sacrifice. Who will want to line up for jobs in these manipulative systems? Who will want to train to become a nurse or doctor in these abusive systems?

The chickens have been coming home to roost for some time (homes having had long-term difficulties to find staff or to adequately staff and compensate adequately).

People have been dying needlessly and will continue to do so. Health-care systems are steadily becoming death systems and political will continues to be tragically lacking to properly staff and adequately pay health-care workers across the board.
