Doctors are doing it tough? Only a 1% increase in compensation? In my MB rural city of 50,000 people you can bet with certainty that the latest model Porsche Cayenne or other luxury SUVs parked in the clinic car park are owned by Doctors. 

Meanwhile the food bank is busier than ever, the average Canadian is facing decadal wage stagnation, and the 1% don't want the minimum wage to rise to a level where those people can pay for both the rent and food (hence the food bank!!).

I teach university students wanting to get into medicine. Top reason given for wanting to go to med-school; big salaries. Not 'I care about people', not 'I want to heal people'. Money.
