Sounds like some of the indentured servants are revolting and seeking better situations. People who demand "free health care for all" never seem to understand that their demand implies a claim on other people's services. That sort of claim is the basis of slavery.

The same thing would happen in a heartbeat in the USA if the democrats continue their destruction of our healthcare system.

No, they need to enlist-enjoin-conscript the leaving doctors until a sufficient supply of replacements arrive.

Chain them to the clinics if need be. They can be let go as soon as a replacement arrives.

No physician in his right mind is going to practice in the frozen 50 below zero north woods of Ontario, at least not when he/she is going to be so shabbily treated by the provincial and federal authorities.

Ontario docs have enormous grievences which this news report does not address. The news reporting in Canada is extremely shabby in general, generally consisting of reporters kissing the enormous buttocks of government bureaucrats.

Memo to Kerry weasel/whiners: Be my guest.

Several years ago I looked at working as a physician in Canada for a foreign friend of mine.

He is on the staff of a very fine hospital in his country.

However, he was unable to immigrate to Canada because he would not be allowed into a residency.

I was told that their are lots of doctors driving taxi's in Eastern Canadian cities.

Basically the people of Canada has over the years morphed into all sorts of stupidness. The great people in Western Canada have little say in their government.

"I was a mean conservative and said that I wished people who made those threats would follow through. Empty threats/ promises mean nothing and make me less likely to listen to anything they said."

Good for you! It's time these people are stood up to.

I bet you haven't heard a peep from them since?
