Murphy's Logic and reflections on 45+ years of broadcasting | SaltWireSeveral Canadian premiers say they will no longer poach health-care workers who are working in other provinces or territories.

Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Andrew Furey said there was a “tit for tat” between his province and Saskatchewan when it came to health-care workers a few months ago. Furey said the premiers also discussed taking a unified approach against limiting agency nurses as all provinces are seeing agency nurses bounce from province to province.“Right now, we have nurses moving from one province to the other fairly quickly, fairly easily, providing Band-Aid-style care while also hurting the treasury of the province that they’re moving from,” he said.

And while some provinces will refrain from recruiting actively working health-care workers in other provinces, Houston noted it’s fair that provinces will continue to recruit future health-care workers from post-secondary institutions and abroad.
