"We're breaking down barriers for internationally educated nurses to work here in Ontario and are providing more opportunity for all nurses to grow in the job," Ford said."It's all hands on deck as we use every tool we have to get more nurses working in Ontario right now.", and a further $9.4 million will be used to support accelerated critical care nursing at multiple colleges across the province, including Centennial College and George Brown College.
Reactions on social media were mixed, with some claiming that nurses deserve better after their nightmare experiences during lockdowns. Why would anyone in Ontario want to be a nurse? They have been the front line of the pandemic and the face of Ontario and instead of treating them like heros, you treat them like garbage. Capping wages under the guise of no cash, lie. Too little to late. You royally suck.One person expressed that the upskilling program doesn't make much sense, considering nurses are not paid enough for their work.
You will turn yourself inside out not to pay people properly. Why would anyone upskill to be paid peanuts?Another person echoed this previous sentiment, stating that current nurses don't even want to work because their wages are capped.“Investing” in hiring more nurses for the nurses who don’t want to work cause their wages are cappedOther people claimed the investment does not do much to resolve the current health workforce crisis.
So, the bucket of water has holes in it and is hemorrhaging nurses. Nurses are also jumping from the top of the bucket, and instead of fixing the holes, you’re just adding more water ?
