Abstract
Physicians aren't the only health care workers affected by cuts in health care spending. In Alberta, the number of registered nurses has dropped 13% since 1993. Although the vast changes in Canada's hospital sector create opportunities for some workers, such as nursing assistants, others such as laboratory workers face a gloomy future. Nicole Baer reports that many Canadian health care workers are voting with their feet and leaving the country, while others are moving to new careers.
