Dr. Garni Tatikian is having second thoughts about her future as a family doctor because of what she calls unfair salaries. Tatikian was among the Canadian health-care workers who shared their experiences with CTVNews.ca about the problems driving some to consider leaving the profession or quit altogether.

This. People are all for unions and collective action until it inconveniences them or it is done by someone they seem “too rich.”

We ARE all in the same boat. Doctors, with few exceptions, are still the working class who depend on their paychecks from their labor. That they are doing something about their conditions should be celebrated and modeled, not condemned.

Traditionally the middle class was doctors, lawyers, business people.

It kind of is again.

Doesn’t mean were not still in the same boat though.
