Now, it is the health sector that is suffering from decisions made by Trudeau and his government in the past. Hospitals are complaining of a shortage of nurses which has affected their emergency departments in that such departments are either being shut down completely or are on the verge of being shut down. What makes this worse is that it is not isolated to a particular area, instead, it is spreading within both rural and urban communities.

Nurses represent a core part of the health care system and essential employees at any hospital or clinic. They are the ones who take care of patients and guide them through their recovery among other duties that are solely performed by them, hence it is a big risk and significant damage for a hospital to lack the sufficient number of nurses needed to maintain the efficient running of the hospital.

Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital, both located outside the city of Ottawa, closed their emergency department for 24 hours over staffing issues, which of course is the nursing shortage we are talking about. They were soon followed by Montfort Hospital, which is located within the city of Ottawa. The management of Montfort Hospital pointed at CO VID 19-related absences, vacations, staff fatigue and burnout, on top of a nursing shortage.
