    Notice how they aren’t moving to Alberta. Even American doctors and nurses know how bad it is and how bad it’s going to get here.

      Increased interest from American nurses was also confirmed by nursing associations in Ontario and Alberta, as well as by the nationwide Canadian Nurses Association.
