Alberta's doctors are now going to use the charter to get more money. Please. "But it's not about money," said the president of the Alberta Medical Association. Please....again. Of course it's about money. It always is.
They have hired a high-priced Toronto lawyer to twist and spin their beef with the province into a charter issue. How they will present that fiction will be a great side show.
The biggest mistake Trudeau made was the charter. Oh, that and the economy. The charter allows anyone and everyone to mount a court case on anything and everything because their "rights" or "freedoms" are being trampled. The good of society as a whole? Forget that.
Doctors here say they "are only asking for one percent above inflation". Doctors already have most of their tuition subsidised by taxpayers and make a ton of money regardless of their competence. You know what they call the guy who graduated last in his class in medical school? Doctor. Seriously, why should they get one percent above inflation?
And nevermind the fact that after they obtain their paid-for degrees, many of them high-tail it to the US. It's unconscionable.
