Concerns over alleged hiring freeze of AB. heathcare workers

Concerns are being raised by the Health Sciences Association of Alberta that the province is allegedly canceling recruitment for frontline healthcare professionals. They say it is part of a hiring freeze to manage an operating deficit. The folks with Friends of Medicare say now is not the time for a hiring freeze and that our province needs a healthcare workforce plan. BCN reached out to the office of Health Minister Adriana LaGrange but has yet to hear back.
