There appears to have been a large and possibly record-setting number of temporary ER closures or service interruptions across the country in 2023 so far, with CTV News finding hundreds instances where a hospital emergency unit, usually in a rural community, has been shut down for hours or days to Canadians seeking emergency care.

Doesn’t help that some hospitals seem to operate under a “throw the new guy under the bus instead of training them properly” philosophy. Thus encouraging more and more nurses to flee the country to earn more - for less work - in America.

Keep up the shit work Mr Ford. We need all the Canadian educated nurses we can get down here.
