Kenney needs to reconsider medical staff wage cuts


By Letter to the Editor on August 6, 2021.

Editor:
In February and March of this year, I was hospitalized with COVID-19. I spent a week in the ICU and experienced short term paralysis on my right side.
Had it now been for the caring and competent attention I received from the medial staff, I could easily have died.
Recently, the Alberta government wanted to impose a four percent wage reduction on the very staff who saved my life. I
am outraged at this attempt at coping with serious financial problems in the Alberta Health care system.
I encourage Jason Kenney to reconsider this wage cut and find other ways of managing finances other than punishing staff who are dedicated to keeping people alive.
