COVID was brutal on medical here in Canada, and seems to have been the final push to send our health care system into full collapse. The unions basically abandoned their membership, taking no meaningful action beyond some wailing to the press.
At least inflation seems to be giving some impetus to take action, with BCGEU taking job action. Three years after COVID hit and only because every member, regardless of seniority and cushy position, is hit by the effects of inflation.
