Saturday’s letters: Nurses’ contract unreasonably generous

Article content

I don’t understand, so maybe someone can explain it. Alberta nurses have just handed a 20% salary in four years, an immediate increase of 15%. They also received “significant” increases in fees, salaries and other areas. Can someone explain why? These growth is not only outrageous, but also unreasonable. In addition to Nunavut, the Northwest and Yukon, which benefited from the generous Northern Living Allowance, nurses in Alberta are already the highest paid nurses in Canada.

Beyond that, Alberta has the lowest taxes in Canada and is one of the most affordable provinces, and what is the problem, and what is possible to justify these increases? As a taxpayer, I can’t find any reasonable reason to support this unnecessary generosity. The contract is ashamed of both of them.

Imitation of liberals lost their ideas

In this election, they created the original, inspiring ideas or policies of the free party they created. Liberals are held by the New Democrats with a distrustful voting gun and are forced to perform NDP dental care and $10 a day care. Every free economic policy from the AX carbon tax to the construction housing plan announced this week is the same as the Conservatives announced six months ago.

The Liberal Party acted like China, stealing all the ideas they could. Even when it comes to fighting Trump, the freedom cabinet has exposed its original ideas. Trump imposes tariffs on Canadian-made cars, so Carney imposes tariffs on American-made cars. Please Canada, shake your head and vote for a party where you can think about it yourself. Imitationist liberals are ignorant and have no new ideas, only one step away from a complete mental breakdown. If Eastern Canada becomes government again, heaven will help us.

Smith has an unfinished business

Regarding our threat to the national solidarity crisis and the next panel discussion, I have made some demands on the current unfinished business.

Unleash the full results of Alberta Pension Plan feedback. important. While waiting for an investigation that could take years, independent companies PwC Canada and Borden Ladner Gervais completed the results of two investigations into procurement contracts. You know, because of another AHS board of directors fired, but not delivered two reports. Prove that you want the truth. Make sure that no health care worker or knowledge brings relevant information will be fired for doing so.

If you really believe that diplomacy is the best, only strategy to deal with a formally elected president, who bypasses Congress’ tariffs that violate the trade agreements he signed, are you willing and able to use the same diplomatic strategy appropriately as those elected to be our prime minister? Because I need these answers and then think about the next step.
