To any health care institution or headhunter seeking world-class physicians and surgeons, the Quebec legistlature has passed a new special law severly impacting the civil and professional liberties of medical practitioners in our province, where average remuneration was already one of the lowest in North America, in a jursidiction with one of the highest tax rates in the world. You now have the opportunity to recruit top medical talent to your institution! Quebec medical professionals are accustomed to working in a resource limited setting, in high-volume practices for discounted rates. Now's your chance to recruit and you can thank @cdube_sante, @francoislegault and the @coalitionavenir for this health care fire sale!
